Oh; you mean the company that attempted to steal Kreissieg’s design & rainbow welds, but failed?

Not many people have made that mistake. That system is poorly made in all seriousness.

I'm currently on the hunt for an ITO racing muffler, but I am coming against a few roadblocks and was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction.

I have found a distributor here in Australia but I am having great difficulty squeezing any information from ITO themselves as regards to what sort of versions of the muffler exist..?

Do they even have a website ..?


I came across this video, that suggests there may be two different sounding versions of the muffler, , but I dont speak japaneese so I cant be sure..



Its the second car's muffler ( without the challenge grill) that I am looking for.

I understand that they come in trumpet and diagonal cut versions of the exhaust tip, so If someone can show me what that looks like that would be great.

So is there only "one sound" version that they make which comes in different exhaust tip configurations..?

 

Correct I have owned both versions. There is zero down side to the Arai Bankin Spec. I weighed both and its noticeably lighter and sounds just as refined and quiet down low but absolutely screams up top. You wont be unhappy with either but the only way you are getting the older style is buying used.

 

I just got one off ebay. Going to swap out my Capristo with it soon. Looking to have the car slightly less loud with bypass closed.

 

Great..

Correct me if I am wrong but what you are telling me is that If I order an ITO racing muffler from ITO Racing themselves , then I will automatically get the "Arai Bankin” spec which ITO Racing now make as standard..?

The next question is..

Does ITO Racing have a website that I can order through..?
If not who are some distributors that I need to go through to make it happen..?

I am in the Asia Pacific Region..

 

I don't have anything proper to weight it with at the moment. What is the difference in weight between the two? I asked the guy I purchased it from and he said it was bought brand new about a year ago.

 

Shipping was charged at 47.4lbs

 

Ya that's the one... And ya, i'm thinking the same thing.

 

Thanks for the input guys..

So here is the dilemma..

I only just found out a few days ago about the ITO racing muffler for the F355.

The problem is that I had already pulled the trigger on a brand new Capristo Level 3 Exhaust.

Do I sell the Capristo and buy the ITO Racing..?

What do you guys that have had experience with the ITO Muffler think..?

 

Ito is much better than capristo on 2.7

haven’t driven 5.2 with ITO but the Capristo exhaust suits the 5.2 in my experience.

 

Thanks for sharing your wealth of experience on the matter Elliot..

Are you able to expand more on why you prefer the Capristo on the 5.2.. as opposed to the 2.7..?
