The CAPRISTO Valved Exhaust System is designed to offer both an aggressive exhaust note under acceleration and a more subdued sound for everyday driving. Here’s a summary of the key features and important details:
Key Features:
-
Dual Sound Modes:
- Aggressive Exhaust Note: The valves open at wide-open throttle, allowing the full symphony of the engine to be heard.
- Subdued Sound: At lower engine speeds and during cruise operation, the valves remain closed, producing a deeper and more refined exhaust note.
-
ECU-Controlled Valves: The CAPRISTO system integrates with the vehicle’s ECU, functioning similarly to the original exhaust. On the Portofino, the OEM valves are electronically controlled, and CAPRISTO’s system aligns with this setup.
-
High-Grade Materials: Made from T309 (1.4828) Stainless Steel, known for its high sonic resonance properties, low weight, and durability. The material is similar to Inconel, used in F1 for its strength and heat resistance.
-
Precision Engineering: Utilizes advanced 3D Laser-Scanning, CAD Design, Digital Prototyping, and CNC-bending/milling to ensure a perfect fit and high-quality finish.
Installation:
- OEM Mounting Points: The exhaust system is designed to fit directly into the existing OEM mounting points, facilitating a straightforward installation.
Important Note:
- Compatibility: This system does not fit the Portofino M.
