Do the Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes fit every Ferrari SF90?

Yes. Capristo lists this downpipe set for the Ferrari SF90 from the 2019 model year onward, built around the factory routing captured by 3D laser scanning. The set works with the factory mid-pipes or with a Capristo mid-pipe section. Owners should confirm the part against their own build before ordering.

Will a check engine light appear after installation?

It can. A free-flowing sport cat changes what the rear oxygen sensors report, and the SF90 may log a fault as a result. Capristo's OBD Wizard Pro is the hardware built to handle it, and Capristo also notes that ECU programming may be required. Plan for one or both alongside the downpipes.

What are the Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes made from?

They are made from T309 (1.4828) heat-resistant stainless steel, the grade Capristo uses where exhaust gas temperature runs highest. Every set of Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes is hand-welded by TIG, mirror polished and inspected by hand in Germany before it leaves the factory.

What does the 250-cell rating mean?

Cell count describes how many channels per square inch run through the substrate. A 250-cell core has fewer, larger passages than the factory part, so exhaust gas meets less restriction on its way out. In comparison to Factory Equipment, that shows up as a freer top end and a harder, more open sound.

What do the hand-sewn heat blankets do?

They hold heat inside the downpipe instead of letting it radiate into the engine bay. Keeping exhaust gas hot helps it move faster through the system, and it lowers the temperature load on the turbochargers, wiring and bodywork packed around the SF90's rear deck. The blankets are stitched by hand and fitted to the pipe.

Are these downpipes legal for street use?

No. Capristo marks this set for racing purposes only, and it carries no CARB Executive Order number. It is not legal for sale or use on pollution-controlled vehicles in California or in other states that follow CARB certification. Buyers elsewhere should check their own state and local emissions rules before ordering.

Description

Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes with Heat Blankets for F173 Ferrari SF90

Capristo Sport Cat Downpipes for the Ferrari SF90 give Maranello’s plug-in hybrid flagship the voice its twin-turbo V8 has always held in reserve. Capristo builds them in Germany the way the car itself was built, 3D laser scanning the factory routing before bending, milling, hand-welding and polishing every section. The 250-cell sport cats open the path the exhaust takes out of the car, while hand-sewn heat blankets hold that energy inside the pipe and off the hardware packed around it. This is the upgrade for an owner who bought the fastest road car Ferrari has built and wants to hear it.

Construction

Capristo scans the factory exhaust routing in 3D, builds the geometry in CAD, simulates the flow, then bends and mills each component on CNC machinery before the set is hand-welded by TIG and polished to a mirror finish. T309 (1.4828) stainless steel carries the whole assembly, a grade chosen for how it stands up to sustained exhaust gas temperature and how it sounds under load. Every set is inspected by hand in Germany before it ships.

Design and Performance

The 250-cell sport cats widen the exhaust path, and the turbochargers feel it in throttle response and in how willingly the V8 revs out. In comparison to Factory Equipment the sound arrives harder and more open, and the hybrid system’s near-silence at low speed makes that contrast sharper still. The set bolts to the factory mid-pipes, so it works on an otherwise standard car or alongside a Capristo mid-pipe section and end muffler.

Features

Freer exhaust flow in comparison to the Factory Equipment, with a harder and more open voice
Hand-sewn heat blankets that keep exhaust heat inside the pipe and off surrounding components
Lightweight
Bolts to the factory mid-pipes or to a Capristo mid-pipe section

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.
