Unleash the sound and response of your Ferrari 296GTB and 296 GTS with Redstar performance exhaust downpipes. Designed as a direct, 100% bolt-on replacement for the OEM downpipes, this upgrade targets the restrictive factory section to increase flow and elevate overall performance while maintaining seamless integration with the stock system.
Expect a tangible step-up in acceleration feel with faster turbo spool and sharper throttle response, complemented by a richer, more engaging exhaust note. Optional HJS HD 200cpsi ultra high-performance catalytic converters support high-output applications, while Redstar thermal management options help curb under-bonnet heat to safeguard nearby hoses, wiring and heat-sensitive components and promote turbocharger longevity.
Built for precision and durability, each assembly uses the highest quality 2.0mm wall 304 stainless steel, is fully TIG welded and back purged, and features OEM-spec CNC machined flanges with factory-style brackets and mounts. Engineered to deliver lasting reliability, clean fitment and a distinctive Redstar character, these downpipes are the performance exhaust foundation your Ferrari 296GTB or 296 GTS deserves.
Available Options
- HJS HD 200cpsi Catalytic Converters: Engineered in Germany and trusted worldwide, the HJS 200cpsi ultra high-performance cats are rated for over 1000hp. Renowned for exceptional flow, durability, and consistent quality, these converters set the benchmark for high-output applications. Ideal for drivers demanding maximum performance without compromise.
- OEM-Style Heat Shielding: Redstar's signature thermal management system reduces radiant exhaust heat by up to 80%. Developed with motorsport-inspired materials and construction, it uses a multi-layer design of ceramic insulation and embossed stainless steel foil. Unlike wraps or coatings that degrade quickly, Redstar shielding delivers long-term durability and consistent protection for engine bay components.
- Inconel 625: Utilising Inconel 625 in the exhaust reduces mass compared with stainless steel while retaining exceptional strength, and it produces a distinctly exotic, thrilling exhaust tone.
