    Too hard to tell from just the tips. Looks like a custom setup.

    Are those custom setups as great as a Capristo or a Tubi, or will I have to change it if I purchase the car ? Thanks!

    I don't know. What I was trying to say is that, the exhaust tips in the picture are not common for the aftermarket exhaust usually seen on Ferrari's. So I'm thinking that the owner had a custom exhuast made to save money. The Tubi exhausts are EXPENSIVE for what they are. You may want to have a look in the engine bay to see what kind of muffler it actually is.

    I would say that it's a custom unit as well. Those tips look very much like the ones I used years ago in my products, but those came from Italy.

    Where is the car located? This may yield some clues as to possibly who made the unit.

    I was sure it was not in the US, so it's possibly Remus.

    They use outlets like that. So did Hartge for BMW's.

    No idea.

    Hartge was for BMW but was made by another in Italy. I never heard the Hartge product on the BMW, but then again any front engine car makes muffler design easy.

    Remus made products for mostly German cars. They had M-B units, but I believe they were quite a bit louder than others.

    So, what they have for F cars and what they sound like is a mystery. Sound is also very subjective. I can't stand loud but I love sonorous. Many on this site get off on loud which I do not understand. So, it's a personal thing.

    Sorry I can't be of more help
