Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes for the Ferrari Portofino open the exhaust at the point where this car’s V8 gives up the most. Capristo scans the factory routing in 3D before a tube is bent, then builds the set in Germany from T309 stainless steel, hand welded and buffed to a mirror finish, with 250-cell sport cats and heat blankets stitched by hand around them. The blankets keep that energy where it does work rather than where it does damage. The Portofino was built to be driven with the roof down, which is an argument for giving its owner something worth listening to.

Sound

Opening the downpipes changes the Portofino more than any other single part of the exhaust, because it is the first restriction the gases meet. In comparison to the Factory Equipment the tone gains weight at the bottom and edge at the top, and the turbochargers answer the throttle sooner. With the roof down the difference stops being something you hear and becomes something you sit inside.

Precision Craftsmanship

Capristo laser scans the factory car, designs in CAD, then bends and mills on CNC machinery before every joint is welded by hand and the whole set is buffed to a mirror finish. T309 stainless steel carries it, a grade rated beyond 600°C and chosen for how it survives the heat a turbocharged V8 puts through it. Each set is inspected by hand in Germany before it ships.

Hand-sewn Heat Blankets

The blankets are cut and stitched by hand to the shape of these downpipes rather than wrapped on generically. Holding heat inside the pipe keeps gas velocity up where it matters, and it keeps that heat off the turbochargers, wiring and bodywork sitting close around the downpipes in a packaging-tight engine bay. On a car driven hard on warm days, that is worth as much as the flow gain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do the Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes fit the Portofino M? No. This set is built for the Portofino and does not carry over to the M. An M owner ordering it would be ordering the wrong part, and the mistake is an expensive one to discover on a lift. Check which car you have against the build before the order goes in.
Will the car throw a check engine light? It may. Sport cats flow more freely than the factory parts, which changes what the sensors downstream report, and the Portofino can log a fault as a result. The Capristo OBD Wizard Pro exists for exactly this. Owners usually order it at the same time rather than discovering the need afterward.
What are the Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes made from? The Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes use T309 (1.4828) stainless steel, a grade Capristo rates beyond 600°C and uses wherever exhaust temperature peaks. Each set is hand welded, buffed to a mirror finish and checked by hand in Germany. The heat blankets are cut and stitched separately to fit these pipes specifically.
Why 250 cells rather than the factory count? Cell count is how many channels run through each square inch of the substrate. Fewer and larger channels mean the exhaust meets less resistance getting out, which is where the flow gain and the change in tone both come from. Capristo settled on 250 cells for this car as the balance between flow and manners.
Do the heat blankets make a measurable difference? They change two things. Heat kept inside the pipe keeps gas moving quickly, and heat kept out of the bay means less thermal load on the turbochargers, the wiring and everything else packed around the downpipes. On a convertible driven hard in summer, the second of those matters as much as the first.
Can these be used on a road-registered car? Not legally in emissions-controlled jurisdictions. Capristo marks the set for racing use, and it carries no CARB Executive Order number, so it cannot be sold or installed on a pollution-controlled vehicle in California or the states following CARB. Check your own state and local rules before ordering.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
