This is how I reviewed the S-line Motorsport XXX-pipe last year on my scuderia. The ultimate exhaust system ! http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=1906820&stc=1&d=1403043508 Image Unavailable, Please Login
Got your messages guys, we're short of 3 ppl to make this happen. If you cannot wait, I'd say just pay the extra few bills, but that's just me.
I may be interested, can I get more details for the system edit: already found the website, how is the quality, fitment and temperatures and how about the exhaust valves? Are there still present or all gone? I expect this is past the cats so no issue with lambda light etc?
Easy install. A few people had early issues with sliding some of the sections together. I think it was related to install technique. I had no problems whatsoever. The small welded bolt clamps are a weak point in the design. I used an 8.8 bolt and torqued it down sufficiently to get the clamp to work. I think some others had problems too as the tail section would not tighten sufficiently and then rotate. Mine are now working fine and remain solid in position. The polished will turn various colors, especially if you did not adequately clean all oil from your fingerprints during the install. In retrospect, I wish I had done the black or ceramic coated. The cooler engine temperature claims are likely misleading. The engine compartment and CF feels as hot as ever and perhaps starting to get the yellowish discoloration starting on the two intake covers that I did not have before. There are no shields to direct the heat off of those pipes. I routinely open the engine deck lid when I stop to park to allow some of the heat to escape. Regardless of all these minor issues, the sound is incredible. It is the best sounding street Ferrari I have heard. I get compliments from even the strict OEM Ferrari guys that don't believe in any aftermarket mods. Sound dB inside the cabin is similar to open valve OEM exhaust, although the pitch is markedly different. There is a slight drone around 3500 rpm but really becomes perfect near 4000 rpm which is a great cruising speed anyways. I just finished a 400 mile trip with the top down and enjoyed every minute. Would I do it again?......absolutely, in a heart beat!
Hello Freshmeat, Can you please let me know how much would shipping be to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. We don't have postal codes here. Once the package arrives the courier gives us a call and we guide them to our offices or home. Otherwise we have a P.O.Box.
Nope, I had a kreissieg before the s-line and the tone of it was not as full-bodied. I think we have our 5! Will do a post office run after work later today or thur to figure out respective shipping for the 5 of you. Stay tuned!
Sorry guys for not updating anyone, but we're short of 2 ppl again. Estimated shipping for... COTUS: $200-$255, FedEx UK/Europe: $375-545, FedEx
Is there any loss of low end power by utilising this exhaust? Obviously sounds awesome, but would hate that to be at the expense of low down torque. also are the cats retained? Which would help in retaining some back pressure. I'm considering this as a possibility for a standard 430, obviously would need scud rear bumper etc. also guess I might need some sort of adapter to make it fit the standard 430 cats (thinking out loud here) feel free to comment. GG
S-line is developing a package for the regular 430. As previously posted dynos show, this exhaust saw gains throughout the entire power band.
I assume this has no valves? Kreissieg was the best exhaust I had heard up until now. I think this might be even better.
That's too bad. I have the valve controller and like to have the valves to roll into the neighbourhood in (relatively) stealth mode when I need to. This exhaust sounds incredible though.
At low revs it really sounds not much louder than stock. I could be wrong coz I'm judging from youtube vids.
