Yes, the spyder has an improved exhaust(single chamber muffler). Ferrari claims that it's worth additional 12 horsepower.
No, I dont think you'll get any gain with a Tubi. However, you will get a more responsive throttle & louder sound (it's like having a subwoofer). The sound is so addictive that you will find yourself driving @ higher RPM most of time. |

With all the changes made to the 348 over the years, does anyone know if the 95 Spyder's exhaust system was improved also ?? I remember reading a thread on how the Cats were better flowing.
Would a Tubi improve my Spyder in performance or just in exhaust note ??

Will a 355 exhaust fit on the 348? |

While it is true that 348 and Mondial T share the same engine, their exhaust systems are quite different. Consequently, Tubi has two different models for these cars. BTW, the 348 Tubi is much closer to a 355 Tubi than to a Mondial T. |

Have a tubi exhaust and tubi test pipes on my 348 spider. Cannot quantify a performance gain but can verify the sound is fantastic.
My non-enthusiast wife, who adored my former TR, stated my new to me 348 spider was "cute". Upon start up and driving with the tibi, she said "at least it sounds like a Ferrari" |

Any of you 348ers out there with a Tubi exhaust? Does it really perform and sound better? |
