    It seems my Valve on my 360 CS has failed, in other words the vacuum no longer works keeping the exhaust fully open.

    I have removed the valve unit only to be told that Ferrari do not sell the valve as a separate item, unlike the normal 360 Modena.

    Has any Stradale owners had the same issue? If so, is the Valve repairable or does anyone have a spare working valve for sale. I can' believe that the only way to get a new valve is to pay Ferrari in excess of £1500 for a new set of tail pipes.

    I love my strads noise when the valves open, but not at low revs - help please!!

    Might be a dumb question but are you certain the valves themselves have failed? Did they both stop working at the same time? If so, it's probably in the ECU and the valves may be fine.

    are the CS tailpipes the same as the stock 360 tailpipes?

    IF so, I may be able to help you out.

    No, they are longer pipes as the box is smaller. 430 tailpipes will fit though, sure there must be a few second-hand ones about due to sports exhausts being fitted?
