New Headers and Cats
I just received my new custom headers and sport cats from M&M exhaust in Germany via FVD Brombacher. They feature propriety tubing diameters, precise laser cut flanges, equal length primaries and a race style merge collector along with 200 cell tri-metal HJS cats. The quality, fit and finish is unequalled.

how much did that sweet setup cost?

what size are the primary's coming off the headers 1 3/4?? also you will probably get a CEL from the back O2's. I didn't get one until after about 100 miles.
|
3500 bucks!! :eek:
And I thought Fabspeed's were high. These look very similar too. Hwy robbery if you asked me.....Have fun with them. |

I've seen the Fabspeed headers. They are a nice product indeed. However, the M&M headers use nickel throughout their design, to include the very best HJS cats that incorporate a true tri-metal configuration.

Ni is approx. 8-10.5% in T304. Ni is 12% in T316. T316 is made for marine environments. Unless you are exposing your undercarriage to salt, say in a South Florida environment, or Northeast winters, that would be the only benefit of owning the M&M headers. Hp gains are the same +/-. |

That's 15% of the value of the car on headers. Jeez.

NICE, VERY, VERY NICE. Thanks for pointing these out as I didn't even know it was an option from FVD. I agree with most folks here that it's pretty spendy though for headers, but I'm not going to criticize your personal choice to buy them for your car. That's your choice! I've had enough flack myself lately because I recently bought a 996 and an older 914 so that I now have 3 Porsches. Everyone at my work criticizes my choices in the cars that I've purchased. Screw them! It's my money and if I'm a car guy I'm not going to drive a freakin' Hyundai to work. Now I drive a '72 914 to work every day. :p In the same vein, it's your money and God bless you if you want to indulge in such a nice set of headers. I do agree that they do look like especially good quality, even compared to the Fabspeed.

I'd hang those pipes on the walls of my home. They're too good looking to put under any car, Boxster or not. :p

Johnny,
Can you compare the experience of the GT3 vs a Boxster? PS Enjoy your cash man, (this doesn't sound like advise you need) screw it, when I had a lot I certainly blew my share. |
