Yes, you read that right. I have a set of FVD sport exhaust AND connecting pipes for race setup for sale $2600 shipped in continental US. The race setup is completely new and never used! The two side mufflers which make up the sport setup for quieter ride was only used couple times - they are in great condition as shown below.

This is the first generation FVD exhaust where the cats are welded to the header for better back pressure. These exhausts are made in Germany with efficient German Tri metal 200 cell catalytic. This is a perfect setup for someone looking for both race format with some amazing Cup car like sound and shave 45+ lbs and have the option switching to a quieter setup with sport side muffler (which sounds more robust than OEM) for Laguna Seca or street driving. Each side mufflers retain the OEM sport valve function. Both race and sport setup can be combined with either stock or aftermarket center muffler/bypass

The FVD sport exhaust alone cost $6700 new and race setup cost $3500 new. This is a fantastic deal at $2600 shipped!

Here are the specs from FVD for sport setup (with side mufflers):

The FVD GT3 sport exhaust gives the 997 GT3 a more pronounced, aggressive sound similar to the 997 Cup Car. Our exhaust is much less restrictive than the factory system and offers a substantial weight savings in the rear of the vehicle. FVD's sport exhaust system consists of light weight performance side mufflers and features exhaust valve switching for front muffler bypass, allowing you the ability to retain the use of the sport button.
Our exhaust system offers impressive gains in performance, especially in the mid range, and produces an incredible sound that is pure Porsche!

High Quality T316 Stainless Steel Construction (Increased corrosion prevention over T304).

Highly efficient German Tri Metal 200 Cell Catalytics which flow like 100 Cell

Utilizes exhaust valves so your sport button works like factory with much more sound!!

The Muffler will not crack due to the extreme high heat due to our advanced mesh integration.

The headers are welded to the cats to allow for the perfect back pressure to produce good torque down low. This system produces an impressive 20HP and 20 lb. ft of torque (with an FVD software upgrade).

Reuses Factory tips or any other aftermarket tips that fit on the stock exhaust.

Each FVD side muffler weigh 17.6 lbs compare with OEM side muffler which weigh 20 lbs

I don't suppose this would fit the 997.2 GT3?

mikymu

Hey Mike. You looking for something more aggressive to cheer on the island spirit?

I don't know the answer eventhough many parts are interchangeable between .1 and .2 GT3. Best to ask folks at FVD directly. Here is their website: FVD

Rennlisters, my offer to buy this great deal from a our fine member mikymu is not going to workout for me.
Sorry for the mix up. I am sure someone else will get much better use out of all this great stuff anyway.
All I really am in search of, is something to replace a cracked Sharkwerks Bypass.
Best of luck mikymu
