    If you like it loud, consider a challenge (no muffler) exhaust. Mine has a custom, no muffler and it's awesome

    The Supersport exhaust alone is not overwhelming for the 355. It can still be used with other components such as headers and or catbypass/Sportcats to provide mor volume without being too aggressive for a street car. The Supersport also comes with nice tips that fill out the rear bumper very nicely :)

    You get what you pay for. Half the price and most certainly, half the quality...

    I have found this not to be the case with Fabspeed. I have their headers and test pipes. I also have Capristo exhaust and I have found no difference in quality of the two companies products from installation and use over the past 2-3 years. I would be much more inclined to buy fabspeed as their customer service is spectacular and their transparency about their shop and products is unmatched by any other offerings for F355 parts.

    Are these 100% Made in the USA?

    Yes, the Supersport X-pipe is made right in the back here in Ft. Washington :) That's no BS either, I don't beat around the bush, anyone is welcome to come look for themselves as we make one :) I should note that even the brackets are made in house on our waterjet.

    Why do you have a hard-on against Fabspeed? You have a 348 & feel the need to post negative opinions about Fabspeed quality, but do NOT have any personal experience with the Fabspeed products except old threads from Fchat? Why?

    Why? Because the broken 360 exhaust was mine. And it broke twice. Now you know why...

    OK so posting threads from 2012 from a known issue that has been resolved on a car that isn't even relevant to this thread.

    I have been nothing but upfront here on the forum and I have personally helped MANY users get set up with Fabspeed products for every Ferrari that I make them for. I have genuinely tried to offer my experience and knowledge gained through my degrees to help answer forum member questions that are not even relevant to anything that I would get paid for.

    There are more than enough people on this site and other that have nothing but positive things to say so I do not need to defend the company. However, as someone who invests a significant amount of time to helping others on this forum as well as others, having someone such as yourself who has no use in a thread but to derail it as if on some kind of vendetta is VERY annoying to me.

    Ask anyone who has spoken to me over the phone, Fabspeed is an enthusiast bread company and all of the employees are genuine motor heads and car enthusiasts who want our customers to have the best set up for their cars. I am willing to help members and offer any insight I can provide. I am sorry for your issues in the past, however 2012 was a long time ago and we have personally been running our Fabspeed exhaust on our 360 for many miles. Fabspeed's customer service is second to none and anyone from the forum who has dealt with me will verify that.

    I invite anyone to call me personally to speak further about this, ask for Evan. Hope we can keep this thread clean and get some real world reviews from you guys.

    Truth.

    Any product/company can have a problem. How they respond to the problem is what is important. If my exhaust broke after 3 years Capristo wouldn't care. If my headers broke after 3 years Fabspeed would fix them. I'm buying from the company that stands behind their products (for life!) and has financial incentive to make sure they never break.

    Fabspeed's customer service & response to customer needs/problems is why you should purchase from them. Besides their headers/cats/X-pipes/Tips all look spectacular! Tubi or Capristo does NOT care if you are a happy customer, just that you paid them money.

    I have a full Fabspeed system on my SE30 and have used their products on other previous exotics, including a 355.
    Never had a problem, service was always on the ball. No problems.
    I've also had a 355 with a tubi, currently a Murcielago with a tubi.... But, I like the fabspeed product better.
    I have a friend who had a support weld break on a tubi muffler on his 355. ***** can happen. I'm a fabricator, and it took 5 min to weld it up. I also cleaned up and added weld to other suspect places. Not a big deal.

    If it was me, I would give these guys a chance to correct the problem. If they don't correct the problem or ignore you, then speak up on a public forum. I haven't read a single post of anyone even contacting them.

    Might be a bit off topic. But TS might want to consider the 355 Nouvalari Supersports exhaust that I have for sale. Superb quality and finish. If anyone is interested, pm me.
