Velocity Exhausts Ferrari 488 / Pista Exhaust System

Ferrari 488 GTB / Spider / Pista Exhaust System

Built for Ferrari's twin-turbo 3.9L V8, this exhaust system is engineered to unlock the full voice of the 488 platform. The factory setup mutes the V8 to meet noise and emissions targets. This system removes that restriction, delivering a sharper, louder, more exotic soundtrack that matches the car's performance.

Sound Character

The 488's twin-turbo V8 has far more voice than the factory system lets through. This system lets it out.

• X Pipe Design: Improves scavenging between banks for a smoother, higher-pitched, more exotic tone while cutting the muted factory sound.
• F1 Catback: A sharp, motorsport-inspired note with exceptional clarity through the rev range, and the loudest option in the lineup.
• Street Catback: A refined, valved setup that keeps the car comfortable when you want it quiet and opens up when you want it loud.
• Overrun Character: Aggressive crackles and pops on deceleration and rapid downshifts, most pronounced with the Downpipes upgrades.
• Overall Profile: High-revving, razor-sharp, and mechanical, with a flat-plane V8 wail that pulls hard to the redline.

Why This System

The Ferrari 488 was built around one of the most capable twin-turbo V8s ever put in a mid-engine Ferrari, but its factory exhaust understates the engine's true voice. This system removes those limitations, delivering a more exotic, more responsive, and more emotionally engaging driving experience.

For owners who expect their 488 or Pista to sound as extreme as it performs, this is the upgrade that defines it.
