    How can I figure out which exhaust system my car has ?

    Options list "sport pipes" but it also has a remote valve controller (see pic below) does this give us any clues ? It is insanely, crazy loud at full rpm and I know they all sound good, but this thing is nuts.

    Delivery guy (yes, just last night) commented it had a titanium exhaust system. Dunno how he'd know that, his English wasn't awesome so I couldn't get more out of him. It is a 2015 458 Spyder and was part of the CPO program, so I'm kinda surprised 'non factory' was allowed to stay on the car (they had to remove the Novitec lowering springs for this reason) so I'm not sure what I have going on. I like it, I just don't understand it. maybe is just the factory system but with a remote for the valves, but his comment about titanium. along with the ridiculous decibel level makes me wonder

    Next time you have an oil service have them look for the MFG stamp or plate identifier.

    My Capristo remote doesn't look like that so my be Forza valve controller that is not part of an aftermarket exhaust system.

    It’s definitely not factory with a remote valve controller— and also VERY surprised that they allowed CPO with it on there— there’s gonna be issues down the line for sure for you when it comes to getting something fixed under that warranty

    You can buy the valve controller and install it on a stock exhaust.

    No way to tell unless you drop the diffuser and hopefully find markings to indicate which brand it is and or take pics and post them.
