Tubi or capristo...

I am a new F355 owner, and Thinking of upgrading the exhaust any suggestions guys?

 

i would choose capristo over anything, youtube it and you`ll understand =) good luck

 

Don't forget the home-crafted options by some of our members:

This is a matter of personal taste...explore the options and select what's best for you. My personal opinion is tubi is a good traditional upgrade, Capristo is perfect if you like the high pitch F1 sound, and challenge style or custom exhausts can be great as well. They all provide different sounds at different cost levels, and some options are more difficult to tone down around town. It was this vid that made me fall in love with Capristo...I have a Capristo Stage 3 and really like it.

Sounds so great, would that be any sound effect if I change the headers or Cats?

 

I have a tubi slightly modded to flow better and the tubi challange exhaust, both together cost me under 2k. I switch them out seasonally

HiFo cats think about them also

 

Yes, both headers and cats affect the sound, cats more so. Hyperflow cats or test pipes are much louder and throatier than stock. I have Fabspeed headers, Hyperflow cats and Capristo Stg 3... It's unreal! You have to do it!!

 

I am a fan of the Nouvalari supersports exhaust. About 1/3 the price of Capristo, sounds incredible, lifetime warranty. I absolutely love mine.

I'm a Tubi fan since it sounds like an uncorked factory exhaust. Some of the others, especially the Capristo, seem to artificially alter the sound way too much.

 

Enhance, the Carpristo enhances the 355 sound.

 

I prefer a Tubi exhaust also. A little more guttural. Tubi with test pipes sounds great.
But sound is subjective. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks but you.

Tubi or capristo, they are both top draw systems for the 355s. Two very distinctive sounds.
Though I will also voice this observation. I have heard of many cases of Owners selling there Tubis to buy a Capristo. But over the years, I have never ever heard of a single case of anyone selling there Capristos to get a Tubi.

 

I have a tube only Tubi, Fabspeed headers and high flow cats. THAT is loud. Too loud according to my wife. I put a Tubi on it and it is OK.

The best option, IMHO, and I struggle with the expense, is the twin sound Capristo.

Eventually that will get bolted on.

I have never seen a used twin sound capristo for sale.

 

Go goth for a unique sound and affordability. You may need to use Fabspeed cats depending on who has what smog certificates.

 

Tend to agree with you, I like the original sound

Not the best but heres my tubi muffler not the open

Yes!!

 

I'm running on the supersports exhaust with tubi test pipes. Intoxicating exhaust note...

 

Thank you guys,
It happens that I also have a F430 stick. What I did was upgraded my headers but keep everything in stock. Sounds amazing, but I know that I am dealing with a F355, and not sure if the headers will make the big difference as my F430.

 

I run a Nouvalari with Hyper Flow cats and it sounds amazing. Great for the $$.

 

I can't drive her now because of all the damn snow so I just listen to her in the garage...lol.

Get both supposedly that's the best tubi headers and capristo exhaust. Lots of cash though

 

Very lovely sound, thanks

 

Here is what a decatted Capristo sounds like at full song.

It's weird, but I personally prefer the factory exhaust for the 355. No drone at speed, and you get that unmatched wail at high RPMs.
