Exhaust system Capristo Porsche Panamera Turbo Executive 970

02PO04703006

Exhaust system for the Porsche Panamera Turbo Executive 970 with the M48.70 4.8 litre biturbo V8. The long-wheelbase Executive was built around quiet, so the factory damping on this car is heavier than on the standard Turbo.

How it works

The valves stay closed at light load, so cruising noise is close to standard, which matters on a car used as a saloon. Opened, the gas path shortens and bypasses the damping chambers, and the biturbo V8 carries a depth the standard system never lets out.

Material and build

T309 (1.4828) stainless steel, rated for continuous temperatures above 600 C, hand TIG welded and polished to a mirror finish in Sundern, Germany. Mandrel-bent tubing keeps the internal diameter constant through the bends, so flow does not narrow where the pipe turns.

Before you order

• Tailpipes are chosen separately, several shapes are available;
• The system is lighter than the standard parts it replaces;
• Installation uses the original mounting points and is reversible.

Capristo Automotive GmbH has built valved exhaust systems since 1990 and holds several patents on its valve technology.
