Once again, out for a pootle in the S, and spotted a beautiful 355 (I think!) coming into Billericay, past Stock Brook Manor... any here?

I think that might be Basher? Sure that car was at the last VW meet?

You didn't wave though..!

Ah well... LOVELY car Basher, and sounded AMAZING... is that a Tubi? (or do they just sound like that anyway?

Going to the offy... in a 355! Jeez, business must be good mate!

Oh, and yep - was taking a mate of mine out for a pootle in the S!

Sorry - last time I waved at someone was in the cerbie and I went into the back of someone else...oops !! Apologies as I was not really awake yesterday...

Yes it is a tubi but it also has the sportpack (ie Tubi airfilters and no cats) sounds a lot louder under load !! standard cars sound great until you hear one with a tubisportpack that is !!! Then you cannot even hear the standard one

Anyone who has a Ferrari, it is now MANDATORY to have a Tubi!!!


Jeez Basher, if it sounded that good pootling along, I'd love to hear it under provocation!

I am hoping to have my bid accepted tomorrow on a 98 355GTB and the first thing I want to do is fit a Tubi but I am interested to learn what options are availible.
How much is the "Tubi sport pack" and how much work is involved for removing / refitting cats for MOT's?. How would removing the cats affect a Ferrari backed Power warranty??
What other Tubi options are availible?
Many Thanks
James

2b a 355 - I replied to your email check your inbox....all my replies are there but as said for all things tubi speak to Manu at Scuderia ( www.scuderiasystems.com)

As far as I am concerned there should be no issues with warranties but I am not the pro on this issue so best wait for someone else to answer that question....any self respecting Ferrari dealer will tell you on the QT that the exhasut and the cats and manifolds do their best on this car to strangle it to death - so by removing all the crappy stock items and replacing with the better free flowing model the engine and breathing is far improved.....
