Forza Componenti Model B4-FP Exhaust Controller

The Model B4-FP controller is a 2-way exhaust controller that is designed for installation in extreme environments as one would encounter in the engine bay of high performance sports cars. Although similar to the Model B4, the B4-FP is specifically designed for use in motor cars such as the Ferrari 488 Pista and other motor cars with very sensitive vacuum control technologies.  The Model B4-FP installation kit includes two additional vacuum control valves so that the electrical circuit for the controller is completely separate from the circuit controlling the existing vacuum control valves.  This design allow control of the exhaust bypass valves without any error conditions or trouble codes.  And, as is the case with the Model B4, you can choose the Normal or Always Open mode at vehicle start. The Forza Model B4-FP Exhaust Bypass Valve Controller provides two different operational modes — both modes can be selected using the included remote transmitter or a manual On/Off switch. Normal Mode:  In this mode, the vehicle controls the operation of the exhaust bypass valves.  This is the stock operation.  You can choose this as your start-up mode. Always Open:  Selecting this mode will force the exhaust bypass valves to the open position — and remain open.  When the valves are Always Open, you have the full experience of hearing your engine exhaust at any time.  You can also choose as your start-up mode. Plug-and-Play 100% Reversible The kit is completely plug-and-play.  Power for the controller comes from the vehicle’s fuse box.  No wiring modifications are required because the kit includes connector cables for included Pierburg vacuum control valves and a fuse tap for the power connection.  Since no modifications are required to install, if you ever want to remove the controller, the installation is 100% reversible. Start-up option user configurable for Always Open or Normal Mode (ECU Control). Simplified installation is straight forward.  The smaller size makes it easier to find a suitable location to install the controller, locate and secure the new Pierburg vacuum control valves, route the vacuum tubing and connect the included cables.  Once installation is complete, you use one button on your remote transmitter to open the exhaust bypass valves and the other button to close the valves and return control to the car.  And, you also have the ability to configure a manual on/off switch that you can mount inside your vehicle. Vehicle Compatibility Ferrari 488 Pista and other selected vehicles. Ferrari F8** **We have reports of 1 installation in Australia in which the dealership claimed the installation resulted in a check engine light.  We have many other installations in which there are no CELs.  Out of an abundance of caution, if you install this on a F8 and do get a CEL, we will gladly refund you the full cost of the controller, however we cannot refund you the installation costs.  Thank you for understanding.   Kit Contents Controller module with two remotes.  Extra remotes available Connection cables.  Kit includes two 120 cm cables and one 120 cm extension cable.
