The Forza Componenti exhaust valve controller kit is the complete solution that allows the user to take full manual control of the vehicle's vacuum-actuated exhaust bypass valves. The controller has a circuit board that controls the negative side of the exhaust valve vacuum solenoids. The user can manually open the exhaust bypass valves to have that classic engine sound at all speeds and engine RPMs. Of course, you can return the operation of the exhaust valves factory whenever you wish.

This kit provides three different operational modes:

  • Normal Mode:  In this mode, valves operate the same as stock.
  • Always Open:  Selecting this mode will force the exhaust valves open — and remain open.
  • Always Closed:  Selecting the Always Closed mode will force the exhaust bypass valves to remain closed at all times. This mode is especially useful to ensure that your vehicle is as quiet as possible.  Note: This feature was added at the request of people who track their cars at locations with strict noise standards and did not want the vehicle ECU to open the valves at high engine RPM.

Each kit is assembled using components designed to withstand the rigors of installation in the engine bay of a modern sports car. The enclosure is extruded aluminum. The internal circuit board will withstand the elevated temperatures that tend to exist in the engine bay of a vehicle. The connection cables are constructed using high serviceability TPE insulated cabling rated to 105° C. Connectors are weatherproof automotive connectors to resist moisture.

Plug-and-Play  ... 100% Reversible

The kit is completely plug-and-play. Power for the controller comes from the existing connector to the car's exhaust bypass vacuum solenoids, and no wiring modifications are required because the kit includes connector cables for the vacuum solenoids.

Installation is straightforward. You only need to select a location to install the controller, unplug the vacuum solenoids, connect the included cables, and route the cables to the controller. 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.

Since no modifications are required to install, if you ever want to remove the controller the installation is 100% reversible.

The controller includes one Remote Control Transmitter. Additional transmitters are available.

FITMENT:

  • Audi R8
  • Audi RS4

FEATURES:

  • Completely self-contained controller box
  • User configuration to use either the remote control key fob or a manual on/off switch
  • Approved FCC, CE, and all international governing bodies
  • Always Closed option can be used to keep the valves closed at all times
  • All internal components are integrated into the Printed Circuit Board for higher reliability
  • Fail-safe mode ... when vehicle ignition is turned off, exhaust bypass valve control reverts to factory ECU
  • No Check Engine Lights (CEL) or Diagnostic Test Codes (DTC)
  • Cables assembled using water and oil-resistant flexible cord - 18 AWG stranded Class K copper conductors per ASTM B-174. The cable is rated SJEEOW for severe outdoor service with TPE insulation rated to 105° C. Type SJEOOW cords are ideal for flex applications in harsh high-temperature environments where the highest degree of water and oil resistance and extended service life are essential.
  • All electrical cables use weatherproof connectors
  • High-gain external antenna for improved remote control performance
  • Kit includes full installation instructions and one remote control transmitter, mounting accessories including cable ties and high temperature tolerant adhesive mounts
  • Remote control can be programmed to newer versions of HomeLink (version 5 and higher) that are integrated into many cars. Older versions of HomeLink (earlier than 2013) will not support the 433MHz frequency of the remote transmitter
  • The controller kit is warranted to be free of defects. If the controller should fail within 12 months of installation, return it to us for repair or replacement

    Fabspeed Motorsport embodies an all-encompassing, industry-leading, meaningful experience one would ideally envision when engaging an automotive performance company for aftermarket exhaust and performance upgrades. Their passion for designing, engineering, and manufacturing the very best in exotic car performance exhaust is not only displayed in their excellent craftsmanship and elite engineering prowess, but their dedication to the customer and the customer's happiness. After purchasing the GT450 Race Performance Package for the 981 GT4, we literally felt like we were indoctrinated into the Fabspeed family. Red carpet was rolled out for us, communication was effortless and fun, and every team member we have ever had the pleasure of working with sincerely cares about our happiness and experience. Phil and Jason have gone well above and beyond expectations to ensure we are more than satisfied with our purchase and driving experience. This isn’t so much a review, but rather a wake-up call to other companies in the aftermarket automotive industry. Fabspeed Motorsport sets the bar for performance, sound, quality, and customer service in custom exotic car performance fabrication, leading by example through tireless and discerning engineering practices and fostering true connections and relationships with their customers (extended family). I recommend Fabspeed Motorsport for exotic car performance exhaust and upgrades to anyone who values objective performance, elite quality, steadfast expertise, and an honest and true sense of community in the automotive industry. Thank you Fabspeed Motorsport for a truly one-of-a-kind, elite experience. -Joshua (Tracking Ponies)

    Total satisfaction! The crew at Fabspeed is top notch and makes a incredible product. My Porsche has come alive with their new sport cats. Look forward to adding more products from Fabspeed.

    Scott K was my sales person. He responded immediately on the web and continued to deal with me on the phone. I purchased a valvetronic system for my R8 and it came out beautifully. We had a hiccup during the process where the system failed their QC process. It took an additional 3 days to get the exhaust, but the expedited it and threw in some swag for the trouble. All-in-all, these guys know how to deal with supercar customers and want to make sure that the VERY small community is well cared for. I'm incredibly happy so far and would highly recommend them.

    I have nothing but good stuff to day about working with Fabspeed. From start to finish which includes working with someone on message boards for my M235i, finishing the sale, the product finish, and the east of installation and and final look and sound with my sport cat and muffler delete system with some awesome carbon fiber tips.

    Been a regular customer for a while now and I must say that they're the best at what they do! Bought a number of upgrades for my 991.1 911 Turbo from Scott and absolutely love the extra power and sounds! Top notch quality and service, would recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their car at any level of performance.
