    Hi all!

    My exhaust manifolds have developed a crack/leak during my ~10.000 kilometer road trip through Europe this summer and would need replacing.

    I know of Fiammenghi, and I see Supersprint has manifolds for the 456 GT.

    What other options are there?

    Will 550/575 exhaust/manifolds fit the 456?

    I do not know if the 550/575 manifolds fit 456 (do not see why they wouldn't) but if you have the option to go with 550 tubular manifolds (shorty headers) vs. 575 3-1 manifolds, go 550. They make much better sound and substantially more power.

    Thanks
    The 456 has the 3-1 manifolds. To be honest, I love the deep burble the engine makes.

    What tubular system do you have in mind? Supersprint?

    Awesome.

    From what I can see on Eurospares, the 550 and 456 has the same part number on the manifolds.

    Did you remove the secondary air pump?

    - OEM take offs, Fiammenghi, Supersprint, or custom are the only choices.
    - Fiammenghi is a 6:1 with cats closer to engine/partially in engine bay
    - Supersprint is a 3:2 (Y pipe):1 with cats under the car
    - OEM is also similar 3:2(integrated cats):1
    - Custom would be whatever you contract to make.

    Cheapest solution is just swap OEM 456 manifold. 575 manifold is garbage design and wont fit right anyway. A 550/456M manifold may have issues w the recirc tubes

    Makes my 1,500 mile roadtrip round Spain this spring seem like a drive round the block. I bow to you.

    I went to Spain as well! And Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Monaco, France, Andorra, Portugal, Belgium and Denmark I was a whole month on the road!

    Now I have to sit down and consider my options with the exhaust... And other maintenance stuff which needs doing!


    Thanks! I'll check around and see what possibilities I have with custom manifolds and pricing!
