Unleash the potential of your 2015-2019 Ferrari 488 GTB, 488 Pista, and 488 Spider Type F142M with Redstar performance exhaust downpipes. Engineered as a direct, bolt-on upgrade for the OEM downpipe assemblies, this system is available with high-flow catalytic options including HJS HD 200cpsi and GESI GEN2 400cpsi, as well as a competition catless configuration for maximum flow.
By opening up the exhaust path, these downpipes deliver a significant increase in performance with quicker turbo spool and sharper throttle response, while enhancing the soundtrack with a race-bred tone. Pair with Redstar's OEM-style Heat Shielding to reduce radiant heat by up to 80%, helping protect surrounding components and supporting turbocharger longevity in demanding conditions.
Crafted for durability and precision, the Redstar assembly uses 2.0mm wall 304 stainless steel, is 100% TIG welded and back purged, and features OEM-spec CNC machined flanges with factory-style brackets and mounts. The result is a robust, seamless fit that embodies Redstar quality and sound for your Ferrari 488 performance exhaust upgrade.
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.
- GESI GEN2 400cpsi Catalytic Converters: The latest GEN2 series from GESI is rated to support up to 1000hp while offering smoother exhaust flow and improved efficiency compared with factory units. Featuring advanced emissions technology for optimal catalyst function at high flow rates. A strong choice for those seeking significant performance gains with refined operation.
- OEM-Style Heat Shielding: Redstar's signature thermal management system reduces radiant exhaust heat by up to 80%.
