Default FVD exhaust experiences?

Any user experiences with this FVD exhaust system (with or without the headers, I like the stock headers):

?

I like many parts of the system, some not so much. But wondering about any user feedback…,

Default Exhaust mufflers from FVD

i run the FVD "export" mufflers on my 993 Turbo and they sound great. No resonance inside the cabin but lovely sound outside. Didn't do the whole exhaust but tempted to do it someday. Pat

Thank you for the feedback. The current FVD systems are made by M & M. I’m going to try their mufflers out.

I just installed the 100 cell cats and mufflers from FVD. Quality is great and I like the level of sound, no droning. Recommended!

I wonder if the 100 cell cats are worth the price. How much are they? FVD recommended I reprogram my K24 (FVD program software) to an updated version if I added the cats.

It's hard to say if they're worth it. When I bought my car they were completely removed and it would make all the CO monitors in the house go off if I let the car idle for more than 5 seconds in the garage. So for me it was the way to go and it was worth it. I'm happy with the quality. Very nice welds and good quality stainless.

I was leaning towards the 200 cell cats. Anyone have experience with the 200 vs 100 cell?

Is the photo from the OP the 200 cell version?

Are their heat exchanges worth it or leave em stock?

I have had the complete FVD 200 cell exhaust (including heat exchangers) for many years.
Good quality, nice sound, no resonance and I didn't need to reprogram the ECU.
