    Just want to share with my fellow F-chaters what a wonderful day it was for me.

    Just got my car back today from the shop (after 3 weeks) for the Major service and Hyperflows with Capristo installation.

    After acquiring this car in Dec last year I've been waiting for this day to come. Now car is done and it's done properly and correctly.

    I'm happy to report that It's running very smooth. It's much better than stock now with the right exhaust set up. Capristo is simply amazing. Absolutely no resonance issues at 2k-3k rpm in 6 gear. Has that perfect F1 hi-pitch scream once you pass 4k rpm and in gear. One very positive experience with this is those Fast & Furious ricers would not do their typical fly-by with this car. Rather they'd pull up next or behind to listen to that F1 scream and give thumb-ups (I never used to get that in my 993TT).

    F1 system is absolutely brilliant. I used to be a die-hard stick/manual shift fan. Now I couldn't be happier with my decision going with F1 trans. Sure this system may not be as fast as that on F430 but it does add a notch more to the experience of owing a modern Ferrari. Every time when it blips for downshift it just put a smile to my face. All you F1 skeptics out there...you've got to give this a try before you dismiss it all together.

    To top it all off....All this happened on the day of F1 season opener and the result I’m sure most has heard already.

    What a day!!! :D :D :D

    Congrats mate!! Cool pics! Have you got any of the car you would like to share? :p:p The 355 is probably the best sounding Ferrari ever. Right behind a 348 with XOST. :D:D

    BTW:

    2 gorgeous cars!

    Too bad the Big "E" doesn't work on 993's!

    If he did, I'd buy one! :D

    Eugenio, are you listening ;) ?
