Fits Both V6 and V8 Models of the B8 Chassis
The CAPRISTO Valved Exhaust System offers the best of both worlds by delivering an aggressive exhaust note under acceleration and a more subdued sound for city driving.
-
V8 Performance: On V8 models, the Capristo exhaust system provides a substantial 20hp increase in performance and torque across the entire speed range, enhancing the aggressive V8 rumble.
-
V6 Performance: For V6 engines, the system delivers a notable increase in torque at lower speeds and produces a significantly more aggressive sound compared to the standard system. Cat replacement and muffler replacement are necessary for achieving these performance gains, along with control unit optimization. The system features larger tube diameters than the original.
-
Adaptive Sound Control: The exhaust system uses vacuum-actuated valve flaps that open and close based on driving conditions and driver input. At lower engine speeds and during cruising, the valves remain closed, producing a deeper tone. At wide-open throttle, the valves open to release the engine’s full symphony.
-
CES-3 Control Module: The exhaust valves are backpressure-controlled and user-programmable via the included CES-3 Control Module. This control unit offers three modes, operated via a remote key fob:
- Cruise: Valves open at higher RPMs.
- Sport: Valves open at lower RPMs and during hard acceleration.
- Open: Valves remain open continuously.
Both Cruise and Sport modes can be individually programmed to manage specific backpressure allowances, providing precise control tailored to the driver’s preferences.
-
Premium Construction: CAPRISTO Exhaust systems are engineered and manufactured using advanced 3D laser scanning, CAD design, digital prototyping, and CNC bending/milling at our factory in Germany. Made from high-grade T309 (1.4828) stainless steel, each system is hand-polished to a mirror finish. This alloy, selected for its superior sonic resonance, low weight, and durability, is comparable to Inconel used in F1.
IMPORTANT
- Installation: The system is designed to fit directly into existing OEM mounting points
