FVD brackets....

...Here are some shots from my FVD Brombacher "Sound Version" muffler install. The shiny new clamps came from FVD, I ordered them when I bought the muffler from them. This will give you an idea of what is involved.

Also, since we got off on a tangent about jack points and tie downs, I thought I'd toss in a shot of the Rennline front jackpoint tie down pad.


















Another point about the FVD muffler that most people just gloss over, it is made out of T316 Stainless Steel. It is a higher grade of stainless steel than the T304 factory muffler. That's one reason why it sounds so good. It is also why the FVD muffler stays shiny with age and the tips turn GOLD after they heat cycle. It's expensive, but the value remains, long after the price is forgotten.

Thanks for the pictures - very helpful.
And I agree on the 316L - much more sturdy material!
