    Looking to gain some additional horse power? Possibly looking to uncork your restrictive exhaust system and let your 550 roar? Look no further!

    FABSPEED MOTORSPORT offers great performance solutions for the F550 along with many other Ferrari cars.



    Ferrari F550 Resonator Bypass X- Pipe

    Our F550 x-pipe replaces the restrictive factory mid-pipes and resonators to improve exhaust flow, increase power, and enhance the exhaust note. This product fits all 550 vehicles (1996-2001) - direct replacement with no cutting or welding required. By switching out the factory unit for the Fabspeed x-pipe, you will shave 15 lbs of weight from your vehicle. All x-pipes are constructed from 14-16 gauge, C.N.C. mandrel bent, T304 stainless steel.

    You will be sure to see a major improvement in power throughout the RPM range!

    Factory/OEM Catalytic Converter Re-Coring

    Another bottle neck in the F550 exhaust system are the extremely restrictive OEM catalytic converters. Not only are these cats a choke point for exhaust flow, over time these converters will begin to break down or clog, causing the car to run poorly overall and be the start of many other issues along with illuminating the CEL.

    We offer a service where we can open up your OEM catalytic converters, remove the restricive/damaged/clogged cores, and replace them with HJS Trimetalic 200 Cell race cats. This will serve two purposes:
    1) Allow the car to breath more freely, resulting in additional horse power
    2) Preventative maintenance for your vehicle over all - specially you exhaust system (your catalytic converts are approximately 15 years old at this point and most likely in need of being replaced)

    Ferrari F550 EVOMSit ECU Tune

    FABSPEED MOTORSPORT is also an authorized EVOMSit distributor. In order to take full advantage of the gains provided by your x-pipe, an EVOMS tune would be just what you need! Increase overall power and drive ability of your F550 along with maxing out the efficiency of that v12 engine!

    So this is about $4k+install to pick up 16hp? Sounds like Ferrari did a great job out of the box.

    Not exactly, the tune alone yields 16HP along with improving general drive ability throughout the RPM range that's only $2,595.00.

    But I must agree, Ferrari did a great job with this car out of the box, which is one of the many reasons we all have come to love these vehicles!

    The 550 maybe isn't an ultimately perfect car but is a great machine, and for me - definitely THE perfect car to love. :)
    Just makes your day feel special.

    Best,

    Joe,

    Can you tell us about the ecu tune? Is the tune extensive enough so we could source say 5.2 motronics out of a BMW and you reprogram for the 550? This way we in smog states could swap stock and performance ECU's at will. Now that would be something I would buy.

    That's an interesting concept given that I've recently had to replace one of my ECUs - if a reprogrammed BMW one would achieve the same results, that could be an interesting option, especially as new old stock 550 ECUs are apparently getting harder and harder to source.

    Yes it is done all the time. In corvette world we sometimes have to race with full mufflers and meet sound but have stock ECU's for the class. So we run a second stock ECU tuned for the quiet mufflers and yet more ecu's for different octanes of fuel.

    Bob,

    I do not believe that our tune has the ability to make the 5.2 motronics ECU from a non 550 car compatible with a 550 - but I will look into this.

    It would be a great option to be able to plug and play different ECUs with different tunes for different situations.

    Here's a new photo of our 550 X-Pipe before it went onto a customers car. Let me know if I can allocate one to you while they're in production!

    Mike in Marketing here. Unfortunately we do not work with the 5.2 Motronics ECU - one of few we do not tune.

    We have temporarily disabled a few tunes on the website as we are gearing up to offer more information / dyno charts, better pricing, and new options. If anyone has any questions about tuning please contact us and we will make sure you are taken care of.
