Product Description

 

 

Enhance the exhaust sound and performance potential of your Ferrari 296 GTB or GTS with the Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes. Engineered specifically for Ferrari's 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 hybrid powertrain, these premium performance downpipes replace the factory catalytic converter assemblies with high-flow sport catalysts designed to reduce exhaust restriction and deliver a more aggressive exhaust note.

Available with 250-cell or 100-cell sport catalytic converters, the Capristo downpipes allow owners to select their preferred balance of exhaust flow and catalyst configuration. The 250-cell version incorporates Capristo's patented GPF/OPF technology, engineered to prevent check-engine lights associated with the exhaust modification. The 100-cell configuration offers a lower-density catalyst design, although additional electronic intervention may be required to address a check-engine light.

Manufactured from premium T309 (1.4828) stainless steel, the Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes offer excellent resistance to high exhaust temperatures and demanding operating conditions. Capristo selected this specialized stainless-steel alloy for its durability and resonance characteristics, which the manufacturer compares to Inconel materials commonly used in motorsport applications.

Each system is manually TIG-welded by Capristo craftsmen and hand-polished to a mirror finish. Advanced 3D laser scanning, CAD engineering, and CNC manufacturing processes ensure precise fitment and consistent production quality.

The downpipes incorporate handcrafted heat-resistant metal jackets designed to reduce radiant heat transfer into the Ferrari's tightly packaged engine compartment. These protective jackets are particularly valuable in high-performance, mid-engine applications where exhaust heat management is an important consideration.

Designed for compatibility with factory Ferrari or Capristo mid-pipes, the Sport Cat Downpipes can be installed as part of a targeted exhaust upgrade or combined with additional Capristo components for a more comprehensive performance exhaust configuration.

Manufactured entirely in Sundern, Germany, the Capristo Ferrari 296 Sport Cat Downpipes combine premium materials, precision craftsmanship, and advanced exhaust engineering for enthusiasts seeking improved exhaust flow and a more engaging V6 soundtrack.
