    Same question here. Bill Kim at Soulspeed does my work for me, but he doesn't have ferrari experience. David Moore at Moorespeed is the defacto ferrari guy here in town. I'm thinking I'd use David for a Novitec install but am open to suggestions.

    I went through the exhaust shop search my self when I was exploring the Magnaflow/glasspack route, but none did mandrel bending; so I researched exhaust manufacturers and finalized on a Larini. I have a Euro 308 and installing it myself was an easy job. If you have a 348, TR or other newer model I'd rec taking it to either Moorespeed or Colvin.

    Well, you know about David. The alternative is Colvin Automotive. They have Ferrari experience.

    Are you sure you don't want to ante up some beer and give it a shot?

    Let me pass along a bit of recent experience:

    About 2 weeks-ago, I purchased, sight unseen, a Tubi that was described as a "demo" unit for $2600. I had it shipped directly to a very trusted local mechanic. Upon its arrival and inspection, it was determined that one mount had been rewelded, one mount was cracked and the muffler can was rattling with debris - evidence of blown cats. The person from whom I purchased it - an intermediary and not the owner - was honorable and ethical enough to refund my full purchase.

    Lesson learned.

    I live in Austin and installed the Tubi on my 348 myself about 3 years ago with a friend. Since the Tubi only has one muffler, it was easy to install. The challenging part was getting the old exhaust out, which has 2 mufflers.

    Randy, I'll think about it, but not sure can realistically burn the time.
