Wayne approached us 2 weeks ago to see if we were able to perform an exhaust installation on his 2015 V10 R8. After some back and forth emailing, we settled on a drop off date a week later and the removal process began shortly after.

We apologize for not having more photos of the Capristo unit. I was not aware that the heat shield HAD to be installed at the same time as the exhaust.

All wired up to the Capristo programmble remote. The difference between "cruise" mode and "open" mode was life changing. Hope you're satisfied with the exhaust, Wayne!Thanks for looking.- SP
