To the v12v boys and girls..
Discussion
A lot of us have been longing for the v12v 's', something a little faster, something a little better.
But...
But...
Something a lot more expensive.
To you all, i may have something to make you fall in love in love again..
You know what they say: best things in life are free... Well sometimes they are just (relatively) inexpensive.
Hear me out. I may have found a parade.
Last week, my car was at Works for its annual and expensive service. Well i was renewing the warranty..
Of course we have all pulled the infamous fuse 22 and of course it was not enough...
The v12v is way too well behaved.
So?
So??
I phoned Manu at scuderia systems and ordered for 415+vat a set of Capristo 2ndary cat bypasses.
They tried convincing me to get the backbox at £3k+ but i declined the gentle -yet pushy- offer...
They told me i would be the first to have such set up.
Works fitted that for 100 quids.
Result? The v12v has turned into a dirty little slut, shouting and burping. Quite loudly at that....
She can still behave... But when you tease a bit, all hell breaks loose.
She is now the same, only louder and mis-behaved.
If you were thinking v12v 's'... Forget it. Go for the for the v12v 'c'. Like Capristo. Or like 'Catin'. A deliciously old fashion french word. I leave to you all to find out the meaning.

That one has a replacement backbox as well as the cat replacement pipes.Come on Eric, make a video or sound recording of yours and post it up!
I know I have to do it but car is garaged now and not sure when i will next take it out.. So need to work it out. I will be late at home everyday this week. So not sure I will be able to do it.
What I can tell you is that adding the straight pipes gets you close enough to the car you see in the film with the full system.
