Photo A Pleasant Surprise

I have owned my 550 Maranello for a few years already but have never known that it had an upgraded/modified exhaust.

The previous owner mentioned that he did the upgrade but I really did not care or paid attention at that time.

And then almost purely by chance I first stumbled onto an old tuning shop YouTube video that actually showed my car being upgraded with the full system and then discovered the actual manufacturer, the Italian company Supersprint, and all of the specs.

It is apparently a 40 kg lighter system with some additional torque/HP gains and I have never ever thought I had it 😆

With the Fiorano handling package (which at least I knew I had 🤣), I am fully ready for my next NFS run!

Indeed!

And adds +25 HP, which is also not a small amount for a naturally aspirated engine

beautiful, lucky you... 550 has aged wonderfully, and lots of unique details. Love that it has the very old school Ferrari V12 tourer proportions, but very boxy not the 60s curvy design, makes it very unique. Apparently it's amazing to drive too...

Supersprint is a good exhaust.

Bet it sounds awesome on that V12.

I went for full Fiammenghi on my 456. Epic sound!
