    Which Capristo exhaust are you talking about? 250 cats, no cats and rear X pipe style or?

    What ecu tune will you use?

    A F8 can sound glorious but getting the correct ECU tune is daunting. Only one that works I believe is the Novitec exhaust system with the plug in OBDII dongles. My understanding from Ferrari is that they can see went a dongle is plugged in and when the car triggers warning lights and the dongle keeps clearing them.

    So stock cats, no opf/gpf or muffler? Yep you'll get a bunch of lights, possible limp mode I learned from others experiences.

    The F8 has opf/gpf sensors which you probably know and back pressure sensors which you've either removed or they will detect. Local F8 guy where I am at tried various exhaust products and always got lights and running issues. Keep us informed as you go.

    The F8 is very finicky to any change in exhaust pressure/flow as are the OEM turbo's are effected by mods with exhaust flow. I would do Pure Turbo 800's at the very least for a reliability upgrade over OEM but that is me as I hate reliability issues.
