Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Leading evidence: 'Use individual parts' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use individual parts' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

hello all,
could those of you who are perhaps familiar with FVD help me out?
i'm looking to do a compleate upgrade of the exhaust system from the headers all the way back.
FVD sells a compleat "GT Exhaust System: (part# FVD 111 996 70) for 5195 euros based on the 2001 catalogue (which is the most recent one i have)
however.. they also sell the separate componants as follows:
headers
cross pipes
race exhaust
for a cost which totals around 3500 euros...
i'm wondering..what additional benifit from the GT system do u get rather then bolting in these new pieces... from what i can see from the photo, the GT exhaust system is welded 2ghether and would not allow removal of inividual componants (unless u cut them off i guess)..
i was told that the GT system was of course lighter but i'm assuming that the individual componants are made out of the same grade aluminium.
so yeah..like i said..what am i missing here..cause i don't want to **** away a few extra thousand dollars on nothing if i don't have too.
post this over at 6speedonline. FVD surfs that forum often, as they are board sponsors. i've met the people that run it and been to their shop. nice bunch. i'm sure there is a good reason for the pricing between the two ways of doing it.
