348 Video with X-Ost installed

I got the exhaust from Daniel at Ricambi.
Got it installed by the Ferrari genious Eugenio (Nice Diablo) who slipped me into his schedule cause he knew how anxious I was to get it done. Eugenio is a true gentleman.

This short clip does absolutely NO JUSTICE for this exhaust system, it is absolutely PHENOMENAL sounding. Near zero resonance in the cabin at low speeds, and SCREAMS at high rpm's. The screams are a lower pitch one.
actually, gonna go drive it again.....

I HIGHLY recommend this brand X-Ost for anybody that wants their 348 to sound the way it was meant to sound.

This video does not do the system justice. It sounds superb.
i will get a moving video done at the next ********** meet or something

Chris -

Eugenio's just sent me a very kind email about the X-OST that we sent out there, along with some terrific installation pictures. I'm attaching them here for everyone to see.

(Does Eugenio's take pictures like this for their clients? Very very nice touch! They seem really oriented toward customer service, and that's always a nice thing to hear.)

They didn't even have to remove the bumper! Those guys rock with their pictures, by the way.

 

Eugenio's is a top notch establishment.
It is a spotless shop, I was considering eating my lunch on the floor of the shop but I don't think he would have appreciated it.

But it is sooo clean you could....

 

I put my X-ost and Hyper flu converter in by myself thank you Daniel Pics and Suggestions!!!!!!!!!!! it was easy.............and the sound is.............just incredible!!!!!!!!! But what is very incredible is the difference in the throtle response..................TERRIFIC!!!!!!!!!!! now it sound ALIVE.............
Thank you Daniel!!!!!! you are a really good friend.
If I could understand how I will put some pics and sound files.........maybe later.
Regards

 

My X-ost & hyper-flow's are on order from Dan.

Hurry Dan!

Dr. G- Does it sound different with the Xost AND the H-F cats than vct's video-sound file?

Also anyone know what the weight savings is for the new exhaust system vs. the old one?

 

I Don't know the actual weight, but it was no prob carrying the x-ost system.
The factory exhaust was 2 pieces, ea piece was heavier than the x-ost.

 

I know for a fact that Eugenio does wonders on Maserati's too....

 

John, my car has HF and X-OST. Sound clip is at www.putfile.com/ricambiamerica. The very last clip is my personal car with that setup.

I spoke to the folks in Maranello this morning. A pallet left there yesterday with TR's, 328's, and 550's. The load of 348's, Mondial, and 360's should leave on Tuesday. It's all coming Int'l Priority so it arrives quickly.

When the X-OST team left for the August holiday, I was, quite frankly, understocked here at Ricambi. It was a mistake on my part, and it won't happen again. In the preceding year, I sold so few of the "other brand" that I simply didn't know the demographics/footprint of muffler demand. Now, I think I've got it figured out, and see the requisite stocking levels.

The weight difference is pretty staggering. Here's the weight of a bubble wrapped 348 unit on my shipping scale: http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showpost.php?p=135706025&postcount=30

 

Rivee, it sound different with the Xost AND the H-F cats a lot!! it is deeper!! incredible sound, but the incredible is how fast is not the throttle......

 

No rush Dan. Just a little anxious.

 

Rivee, it very light! you ca not compare with the double mufflers!! junk!!!sooo heavy!
Thank you Daniel at ricambi I got yesterday some more parts!! thank you very much!

 

damn that sounds nice !

i dunno, sometimes i think the 348 sounds better than the F355

 

Damn----------After Chris had Eugenio install his X-Ost, I started jumping up and down, screaming "I want one too!!!!!" Emailed Daniel @ RICAMBI and ordered H.P.s and X-Ost, Rachel will sound so sweet...............

Cheers, Hank

 

It sounds nice,I actually went with Tubi,found it to be more agressive,but just my opinion.

 

Cool! is The master Eugenio going to do the install?

 

Why you don't do it by yourself???? the hard part are the HF Flanges, the rest is easyyyyy
You can save big Money I suppose.

G.

 

But of course Anyway, I think Rachel kinda likes him. She really didn't like that other guy

 

Dr.,

With my terribly low patience threshold, I could possibly kick a hole in the new silencer before I ever got the old one off. I'm an OK idea guy but an awful handyman

Cheers, Hank

 

Ah c'mon!

 

Really!--------and my "get me closer" glasses get drenched with sweat-----and I get hotter and HOTTER!!!!!!!!!! and the wrench slips - and - BAM!!!!

I don't fix watches either

See ya Sunday? Hank BTW, What about LaCanada tomorrow AM?

 

I will try my darndest to make it Sunday. Need to drive the car.
I should be there around 9

Can't do LaCanada, gotta work

 

Trusty Me.............it is easy!! expecially if you don't change the Cats!!!! and you save big $$$$$$$$$,.....................if I did it.............with home grade tools............everybody can do it!!
Regards
G.

 

Hi Dr. G,

The cats on Rachel have already been done so that's not an issue, TG (is that valid for "thank God"?), I can change ECUs, and a few other things too - - - - but INSTALL SOMETHING MAJOR?

Look at it this way - - having a fight with the lady? You can give me a call. As for my X-Ost, if Eugenio wasn't available - - expect a call from me. Talking about calls, what's your field?

Cheers, Hank

 

OK!

Just came back from a round trip to the VCR (65mi round trip). First time I have driven a distance with the new exhaust.
Absolute 200% improvement from stock.
REsonance is non existant, no headache when I got home.
Sounds great from rev's to 1st gear launch, to 5th.

One would think I was the distributor for this exhaust I rant so much about.

In due time, the word will be out about this exhaust manufacturer.

PS: can't wait to hear Rachel with the new exhaust and hyper flows.

I would love to hear X-ost in person on a 355 and 360


Sorry for the long post. still kinda excited...

ok, gonna go drive again
