The all-new iconic CAPRISTO valve exhaust system for the facelifted R8 offers the best of both worlds with its ability to produce an aggressive exhaust note under acceleration and a more subdued sound for city driving. At lower engine speeds and during cruising, the valves are closed, producing a deeper exhaust note. With the throttle wide open, the valves open, unleashing the full symphony of the engine.

The opening or closing of the CAPRISTO valves is controlled by the engine ECU, so they work the same way the original exhaust was designed to work. OEM vacuum tubes fit directly into the CAPRISTO valve system.
Alternatively, the optional wireless exhaust valve remote can be fitted, which would provide the ability to open and close the valves at the touch of a button and override the OEM valve closure at certain RPMs and conditions.
CAPRISTO exhaust systems are designed and manufactured using advanced 3D laser scanning, CAD design, digital prototyping, and CNC bending/milling in our factory in Germany. Each system is machined from high-quality T309 (1.4828) stainless steel and hand-polished to a mirror finish. After extensive research, this specific alloy was chosen for its sound resonance properties, low weight and durability that are close to the properties of Inconel (used in F1).
IMPORTANT
The exhaust system is designed to be installed directly into existing OEM mounting points.
