    Well the inevitable finally happened and the cracker header mister bit me. Looking for experience sharing on the good, bad replacements are from those who have done the replacement. Also sharing on wrapping or not, coating or just naked. Thanks in advance. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    I went with Tubi for OEM look, hard shell heat shield, and Inconel 600 steel tubing and header flange. Did them myself, no sweat, just a little tight in spots.

    Tubi is the way to go. I have installed 7 sets so far this year.

    Capristo is another very good option.

    Kline makes an awsome product. Have yet to install a system on a Ferrari, so I really can't comment. But have installed quite a few on on Porsche and Lambo and never an issue with fit.

    That said..I would still go with Tubi for the manifolds because of the shielding, Kline from there on back would be a great thing to install and hear.

    Get the challenge headers. Cheap and as good as the overpriced third party brands.

    Most if not all aftermarket manifolds will flow better than the Challenge manifolds. I'd rather go aftermarket personally.

    A bigger better flowing exhaust always moves peak power and torque further up in the the rev range. Which means you notice a drop in mid range torque. Well that is certainly what I've noticed after putting many aftermarket headers/exhausts on many cars. A slight performance increase from an upgraded exhaust always has a downside. That's why I went challenge headers. No pre-cats means a performance increase and the header is designed by Ferrari for their race car. Very happy with mine.

    Thank you everyone for your comments. After taking all into consideration I have decided on going with the tubi.

    Can't go wrong with Tubi. I believe they make all the headers and exhausts for Ferrari.
