KLINE VALVETRONIC EXHAUST SYSTEM FOR FERRARI FF

Kline recognizes the Ferrari FF as the quintessential Grand Tourer, boasting a 6.3-liter V12 engine and drawing on styling aesthetics inspired by a previous era, resulting in a timeless and chic appeal. Understanding the exceptional sonic potential of the naturally aspirated V12 engine, Kline took on the challenge of maximizing its performance.

THE SOUND

Kline’s main criteria for the FF was to develop an incredibly lightweight, valvetronic full exhaust system using Inconel 625. The goal was to create an exhaust system that would deliver a subtle and pleasant auditory experience during cruising speeds while opening up to a full-throttle scream when the valves are fully open.

To achieve this, Kline replaced the stock catalyst with high-flow 200cpsi HJS sports catalysts, significantly amplifying the sound output. Additionally, they engineered a precisely designed laminar flow X-Pipe with perfect geometry, which enriched the tone, raised the pitch, and produced a fuller, more aggressive exhaust note. The inclusion of a valvetronic rear section allows for near-silent operation during cruising, while providing the freedom to unleash the unrestricted Ferrari scream when desired.

STAINLESS STEEL

Within the realm of exhaust manufacturing, the industry has traditionally relied on the established standard of 304-grade stainless steel. This grade offers a well-balanced combination of moderate strength, thermochemical stability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of production. It enables the construction of exhaust systems that strike a practical balance between affordability and functionality, ensuring long-term durability. However, it is important to note that stainless steel is relatively heavier compared to alternative materials. While its density is similar to regular steel, it possesses slightly lower tensile strength. As a result, stainless steel has limitations in creating high-performance exhaust components and may result in a somewhat subdued and less vibrant exhaust note compared to other materials.

INCONEL

When it comes to ensuring durability and heat resistance, Inconel 625 stands out as the ultimate choice widely employed in the aerospace industry. This exceptional material finds extensive application in the manufacturing of critical components, particularly exhaust turbine blades for high-performance jet engines. Inconel is notably favored in Formula One exhaust systems and has been chosen by manufacturers involved in prestigious hypercar projects such as the McLaren P1 and Aston Martin 177. The advantages of Inconel lie in its high tensile strength and excellent thermochemical stability. With a tensile strength comparable to that of titanium, it achieves an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio. This allows for the use of thin sidewall materials while maintaining structural integrity, facilitating the production of lightweight components that demonstrate exceptional resistance to fatigue over extended periods. However, working with Inconel presents challenges due to its difficult machinability and specific welding requirements, demanding specialized skills and time-consuming techniques. Additionally, the unique properties and specialized manufacturing processes associated with Inconel contribute to its higher cost as a raw material.

HEAT SHIELD

For customers prioritizing effective heat management, Kline offers meticulously designed heat protection solutions crafted from embossed stainless steel sheets. Skilled artisans carefully create and weld each heat shield to ensure optimal performance. By integrating these heat shields onto the manifolds, Kline reduces heat soak, improves scavenging, and enhances overall performance, resulting in a cooler engine temperature.

KLINE VALVETRONIC EXHAUST SYSTEM FOR FERRARI GTC4 LUSSO

Kline recognizes the Ferrari GTC4Lusso as the definitive Grand Tourer in its class. They acknowledge the immense sonic potential of the naturally aspirated 6.3L V12 engine and have taken it upon themselves to push the boundaries even further. Through their expertise, Kline has fully optimized and unleashed the engine’s sonic capabilities, resulting in an unparalleled driving experience that surpasses all expectations.

THE SOUND

Kline’s primary objective for the GTC4 was to develop an exceptionally lightweight and high-performance exhaust system. They achieved this by crafting a valvetronic full exhaust system using Inconel 625, meticulously designed to provide a refined and pleasant auditory experience during cruising speeds, while delivering an exhilarating and powerful scream when the throttle is fully engaged and the valves are open.

To enhance the sound further, Kline replaced the stock catalyst with high-flow 200cpsi HJS sports catalysts, resulting in a significant sound amplification. Additionally, they replaced the stock H pipe with their meticulously engineered X-Pipe featuring optimal geometry and laminar flow. This modification not only enriches the tone but also raises the pitch, resulting in a fuller and more aggressive exhaust note.

Furthermore, Kline’s inclusion of the valvetronic rear section allows for near-silent operation during cruising, while providing the freedom to unleash the unrestricted Ferrari scream by opening the valves when desired.

If you have a stock exhaust on an FF and are controlling the valves (meaning keeping them open), what would be the most bang for your buck on an addition to the current setup? Downpipes possibly? I would like a little more of the F1 experience but as a daily driver with kiddos it would be nice to be tame around town. Thanks for any insight and great looking products.

I did Kline 200 cel cats and x-pipe with stock catback - sounds better but I think it could be a bit louder

To my knowledge, the Kline piping on the FF and Lusso systems is roughly 1/4" larger in diameter than the factory. Was your factory center pipe section after the x-pipe modified to fit or was some sort of adaptor used?

Mine is a 2012 FF - no modification prior. Just ordered cats and center.
