Product details
Replace the pre-facelift R8 V8 rear exhaust with a valve-controlled assembly offering resonated and bypass paths. The included wireless control hardware may require minor splicing even though the exhaust mounting is bolt-on. Fabspeed Motorsport, based in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, develops exhaust systems, air intakes and ECU tuning for sports cars including Porsche. Its development work uses dynamometer testing, road evaluation and racetrack testing.
