But when you compare them to other known manufacturer's out there, they are far far more costly and for a 4hp +/- claimed gain, that's an incredibly costly investment for one piece of the exhaust puzzle.

So yes, that's why I said what I did and sorry it offended you! It was not intended to. Hell, I appreciate aficionados like you.

If you've got the money, go for it. I can't say I have always let the pocket book steer my decision making abilities....
JWADE,
No offense taken at this point. On a positive note, since there were very few choices available as far as headers and cats were concerned, after working closely with FVD Brombacher here in the USA, they impressed upon one of their affiliates in Germany, M&M Exhaust, to custom fabricate a set for me. For anyone who is unfamiliar with M&M, these are the guys who are behind most of the major "tuners" in Germany. Gemballa, Techart, Speedart, 9FF, Cargraphic ect.... have all relied upon them for their exhaust systems. Yes, they are expensive, but the quality and performance in unsurpassed. After serving as the first "guinea pig" , they are now available as a regular item through FVD.
