My guy I felt that lmfao his face priceless
Emelia, if you're going to TIG weld stainless steel you need to back purge your welds. There are simple kits out there from companies like TICON Industries, that include plugs that enable you to plug each end of the tubing, and then you connect an argon hose to these plugs so that you're flowing argon thru the tube while you TIG weld. If you don't do this your weld will have porosity and sugaring on the inside of the tube. This will lead to a less strong weld, loss of corrosion resistance, and obstructions to your flow inside the tube.
This process is not difficult to do, especially with these custom products designed specifically for back purging stainless exhaust components.
Her welds will look even better when she back purges them.
Too late for this car.
Solar flux type b works too
She'll be throwing all that shit out and going back in with the stock exhaust.
Why people try this when these cars are already set up right. Ferrari is not going let the owner ever buy another one. Blacklisted.
@@jamesanderson8342 The issue with using solar flux and products like it is that it forms a glass like slag on the inside of the tubing. Although you can get away with this in some applications, if you're making a header that will go into a turbo, or an intake or sanitary tubing like for a brewery or food processing plant you'll need to back purge, thusly back purging is a great process to have in your toolbox for when its needed.
RDBLA and Gintani do SF90 exhausts and have to get around this same error contact them
For the CEL issue; plug the valves into the harness and start the car, see if the codes pop up. Odds are it think the valves failed and due to how they tune the car, its playing it safe. Other than that, the car will have no way of telling the exhaust is different. Theres no back pressure sensors, just o2 sensors from what i can see. So if the o2 sensors are getting the proper air flow and they arent designed to be post cat, they should be fine.
The O2 sensors could be getting a higher airflow reading. These stupid new cars can't be tuned by a lot of programs! So annoying... HP Tuner for example just good for American stuff. For the valves connect them back up and cable tie them to the the hangars or something
I think there is obf sensor in the carback so the reading different
@@Steve-Mcgarrett A wideband sensor like the ones on these cars (4 wire) cannot measure air velocity or pressure. They measure a air fuel mixture. If a wideband sensor could read velocity and pressure, no one with a car newer than 2007 would be able to add more power or flow without the car tossing up a dozen or so codes. I can almost promise you that the codes being thrown are all related to the exhaust valve. Unless, again, those sensors we are seeing are supposed to be post cat. Which, considering the cats from factory are AFTER the sensors, is not the case.
@@Alisilverado my money is on it having 3-4 codes related to the valves being unplugged, and 2-3 for not having the right cat in the car. p0420 for instance.
@@parrisracing2370 i hope u right
Couz i have F8 2021 and im thinking to put exhuset
One week to mock up, fabricate and install exhaust on a 296. This video is epic, i would’ve cried hundred times easy getting the thing out. And then had to sit through maybe another 3 days of pep talk to just muster up the will to finish the sentence custom fab work on my Ferrari. You got this E!
I’m sure there’s more to it being a much more complicated vehicle, but I was going to say the same thing as others about the exhaust valves. Even changing a cat back exhaust on a C8 z51 or Hellcat (from personal experience) they will throw codes. Aftermarket usually gives you options to reinstall the factory actuators or a delete kit which simply tricks the car into thinking your valves are installed/opened.
Amazing video as always... hope u guys get through. I would love to hear how that exhaust sound. Keep doing your thing girl!!!💪👌😎
emeinla your ability to tackle all you do is incredible, lets give Sandy some props as well. I love your work partnership. Not letting the software get to you is admirable. Some good comments that could help. I'm just a 70s street rodder and am lost in the modern world, I just think seeing a beautiful girl with a wonderful heart and personality is so cool for todays market
Ferrari is the Karen of car manufacturers
This is nice. It's been a while of not seeing emelia weld. She should do this more often when she can, tho.
The same uneasy feeling you had about this car is the same feeling I have every time I watched you tear apart the C-8 & the Ferrari lol. Yet I still love to see the end results. I thought they sent you a cease & desist letter. Just means you'll be the first to figure out how to get around it. Wow, that car is smart though!
Emeila i love your videos. Watched your content for years and always enjoyed. Keep going girl.
obviously that is not what is stopping me from getting a Ferrari, but the way they try to hand pick and control who owns their cars and what they can and cant do with them is insane. i already have a "problem with authority" to begin with so i would never want one of their cars if i had to deal with them.
They're completely fine with it. Ferrari will always be Ferrari; they are a wealthy person's first choice for a vehicle specifically because of the image that Ferrari was careful to cultivate. Compare that to Lamborghini which is widely considered gauche and only driven by "new-money" types which actually wealthy people want nothing to do with.
Maybe try and putting the exhaust valves back in? or plug the motors in to their harness so the wiring is still complete and tuck the motors out of the way? 🤷
Your welds look awesome! But I'm wondering why weren't you purging the pipes?
Maybe plugging the valves back into the harness might do it. I don't know Ferrari's but on my newer GM cars the CAN bus makes everything "talk" to everything else. One thing out of spec here interferes with something you would think was totally unrelated. For example, on my '05 Grand Prix GT2 the alternator went because the battery died and overworked it. Ever see an alternator read 200 degrees+F with an IR thermometer? Damn thing hasn't quite got 30,000 miles on it (I inherited it when Pop passed in 2015) DIC showed "Charging System Failure". Scanned it and got out the 6" thick stack of service manuals (yeah, I have them). How in the HELL is the starter considered part of the Charging System? That's one thing I DIDN'T have to replace!
The '99 GTP is a LOT simpler (and the Supercharger gives 40 more horsepower).🤔
@@PhilG999 yeah man. I know a few other cars that have active exhaust valves where if you unplug the motors it will throw a code because the valves are coming up as missing and can't open under accel. Not sure if that's the case here with the 296 but it sounds similar.
Good to see you guys back to the basics: turning wrenches and burning stuff up!
I stumbled across your channel a few weeks ago and loved it. I didn't know you could also weld and fabricate...kudos to you. Keep up the good work. You've earned my sub 😊
Great job getting that exhaust together. Your perseverance is legendary. Side note on the “spicy wires”… beware of any slag or splatter. While they are heavily insulated, a penetration of that insulation (no matter how small) could be deadly. (Think bad spark plug wires, but with power lines.) Anyway… stay safe and keep up the good work👍🏼
Love your videos Emelia keep it up
Brings back fond memories , you welding an exhaust. That’s what I first watched you do when I started following you. You we’re welding the exhaust for the drift car.😁 Those were much simpler times 😂
one question though. Why no back purge while welding the pipes. They are staneless? Or am I wrong? Any way. From the outside it looks great.
Ferrari probably spent a lot of time on research on that exhaust too lol 😂
I love that Emelia will have a go at anything and seems to be good at everything 🙌
I've heard the stock exhaust of an F430 and there is no way I want to tamper with it because it already sounds so good in its stock form. Also, the seats in a Ferrari are so comfortable that you just do not want to stop driving it because Comfy seats + Performance + Engine sound = Dream Machine. If I had a Ferrari, after I arrive at my workplace I would say to myself "I have to be in the office but, I just do not want to get out of my Ferrari."
This is so cool. Emilia’s enthusiasm is contagious. The Ferrari is alright too. 😁
I like all the engineering calculations regarding back pressure; etc. also like the extensive dyno runs to check the effect of your work 😂😅
"If it's build by humans it can be decoded by humans" - Unknown. Amazing work.
With the exhaust control valves not being detected and likely the ecu seeing the increased air flow past the secondary 02 sensors that's probably what triggered the limp mode. I bet even just having the valves plugged in and running an 02 sensor spacer on the rear 02s would probably be enough to trick the ecu
Completely agree with the spacer. I am not knowledgeable about the valves in the exhaust but if it’s an unplugged component, yeah I agree plug them in and leave them disconnected. Nothing a couple of correctly sized resistors won’t solve.
its cuz theres no cats mainly... the valves could also be another code but i doubt just that would lock you out from driving the car at all..
Love your videos Emelia :D
Keep it up!
“Their car” is wild. They would have to pay me more than the car’s worth to stop me from doing whatever I want to it.
Why does Jay Leno refuse to own one....😂
He has a personal grudge with a Ferrari dealership!
So, whenever I have to weld or torch around anything sensitive, I use either refrasil or spun/woven kevlar heat repelling/flame retarding cloth, which I discovered by working in the film industry as a Key Grip, protecting from super hot lighting equipment. Any sparks are immediately arrested within the cloth. The black spun/woven kevlar cloth can be held between your hand and a torch without experiencing any flame, heat or spark transfer. It's very expensive, but it lasts forever and can be reused over and over. It's around 250.00/yard. Refrasil is cheaper and will do most anything required during car work. This is especially important when working around fuel tanks, lines, and intakes. Be careful!
I'd love to see them try and stop WD from doing what he wants to his.😂🤣😂
Right? Come repo my car, I dare you.
Simple, when you are placed on the f'naughty list the car has to be bought by somebody else.
Emelia, I give you seriously mad props for welding all of that so beautifully!! Hands down you did an incredible job and you should be very proud!! I'm sorry for all of the issues with the Ferrari computer system! I wish you the best of luck in getting around it!! Keep up the awesome episodes and Thank You and the E-Crew for All that you do!! :-)
Glad you did the welds yourself girl! Your turning into quite the wrencher now!
Good job!! That's definitely a rad build so crazy how smart they are.
Yeah, this has really gone far enough with a customer's inability to create the car they want. While it may be a simple fix in the future, right now they put a brand new car into limp mode.
Let me explain it to you. In Ferrari’s absolutely correct opinion, when you devalue ONE of their cars, you devalue ALL of their cars. Emilia has ZERO respect for the brand and marque, which she initially displayed by destroying her absolutely perfect (before she touched it) 458. Here we go again, as true Ferrari aficionados watch in horror as another perfect car get butchered by an idiot UA-camr. The owner of that car has just lost close to $100k in market value by letting a non-factory certified technician touch the car. That’s just NOT done. She’ll never be allowed to purchase a new one with her record of disrespect for the brand. Hope it’s worth it. Probably is, she’s more in love with freakin Mustangs than Ferraris. Genius. smh

What happened to Sandy's Pantera?
Well I do have knowledge about all these kinda stuff but lemme tell you ferrari uses a sensitive updated software which will not let you modify these exhausts or do any serious map installed as they are very particular about the emission norms, also they do make lower peak power and gradually it increases over the middle and the higher rev range, so even if you try to tweak a map in the ecu it would take a lot of elbow crease to actually achieve what you want. I do like seeing good maps and modifications in these vehicles but I hope you/the owner of this car wont face any problem, coz this engine is gonna take all that tweaks which you are gonna perform which might doesn't make any sense considering the fact that this car has it's own symphony. All the best Emelia.
Emelia your welds are getting so Good! Also love how you called them spicy wires. Guess its a pretty accurate description!
U dont have to back purge the exhaust when welding?? How did the welds turn out on the inside?
Who saw that coming ....😂
Love seeing you having fun with one of your passions. Cannot wait to see Gran Turismo!!
There engineers and top brass are mad that some ordinary folks can make it better 😂😂
I missed the problem needing to be solved with this modification. I assume Ferrari carefully tuned the exhaust for optimal performance on this sophisticated car, since they utilize the technology on their race cars.
Those pipes should come out right on the top (through the tailgate) 💯percent!
I love your content, Emelia! Ignore the haters and keep doing what you do. ❤️⚘️❤️
Cringe
240's to lambos its crazy the progress ive seen you go throught it forsure inspires me to keep working hard for my dreams
It's gotta be the exhaust valves which can be easily sorted. I don't know if they have an exhaust sensor or not if it does maybe it can tell It's not stock but im certainly curious as to how this turns out.
Everyone getting mad at Ferrari but honestly considering how complex the hybrid powertrain is, it kind of makes sense to build in a safety measure when changing parts that are not factory, it could fuck up the entire system with all the electronic going about
Love your journey and content ❤
Watching her content on repeat (especially the C8 Zo6 stuff) and boy am I inspired. Anyone know where I can get the C8 LT6? I wanna drop it into my E46, my only concern is that I’ve heard the EMS is annoying? Hope there’s a crate engine in the future. For now Emelia’s Z06 is the car I’m following closely to see what can be done
Most likely gonna have to buy a wrecked C8
@@TheNate371 that’s why I’m worried about the ECU. I’m hoping there’ll be standalone options cause I may want to detune it a little
@@TheRacingJoker Pretty sure if its just the engine, you can run the motor with any standalone ECU that will work with LS/LT motors provided the harness connectors are the same. If not, you can always create a custom wiring harness and use compatible sensors. A lot of swaps aren’t very plug and play, so I wouldn’t expect a corvette motor to be much different.
@@TheRacingJoker If I remember correctly, Emelia piggybacked a Holley Dominator on top of the stock ECU from the factory, which can cause issues, but I wouldn’t see why there would be a problem if you just use a Holley Dominator ECU standalone without the stock ECU.
@@TheNate371 here’s hoping something like that’ll work. First I gotta figure out how to get the engine or at the very least make sure it’ll fit.
Always love your video! Great way to start the day off. Watch your video
They just don’t want you to make it way better…
its jus Ferrari being Ferrari
Same issue dde had with their Ferrari, the mass air sensors are based off the volumetric flow for a certain diameter pipe, change the position etc and their scaling is off.
How much power does from the Wray corvette use to get up to 200 miles an hour verses the regular gas powered engine?
as i am a welder, i would advise purging any stainless welding you would be doing. would prevent sugaring on the back side of the weld and not have any leaks.
ditto
You are truly a woman after my own heart. The moment you buy something, you're like, "Let's take this apart, and make it better!"
It's not her Ferrari. She is building an exhaust for some dude that she doesn't even know.

Tell the government, not Ferrari
Hey Emelia I love this video and I have to ask could I possibly buy a Z06 exhaust from you for my car?
Ok now from what I can find being a bit more savy than most people or mechanics the part where you messed up is the E valving your removed from the exhaust is needed it actually holds the car at temp in the exhaust along with function as a back pressure regulator and pipe temp control the valving is actually pretty smart it'll close during Rpm or load variable and it's not just controlling tone they're using it as an advanced measuring device. Yes remove restrictions in a turbo application it makes better sound and frees it up more power but down low controlling the back pressure helps control boost numbers and use to build reversion and heat into the system making a more efficient system. The car period will freak out cut the exhaust back up stick the E valving back in like close to the stock location and keep the rest of your custom exhaust and done will bet Sandies left leg on it
It's like the camera was mounted on a bobblehead. The engine is jammed into what could be the back seat. Looks like you'd have to go into the front seat of the car to work on it.
That stinks after all that work. I have been in the 268GTB and they are very smart cars. I hope you will be able to bypass the sensor that detected. Thanks for the video and keeping your wires spicy.
4:45 With that torch cup, the tungsten should protrude about 5/8" - 3/4" and set the argon cfm to 35-40 for a wider coverage of shielding gas.
What happens if you just plug in those exhaust valve components and let em sit there, see if computer gets happy? (Personally I thought that OEM exhaust sounded pretty cool but I'm not one for loudness-for-its-own-sake. )
That’s what I was thinking I off-road in a 98 camry and I removed my front passenger seat and to override the airbag light I just disabled the explosive charge cylinder and plugged it back in and presto but it’s probably different on that car.
How many wires are there in the exhaust valve(s) plug? Is it a simple 2 wire valve motor or is there more plugs and pins? I would suggest plug the valves back in and put them in a hidden location however F may have put something like a temp sensor in the valve to ensure it is actually in the exhaust path.......
Super cool! Excited to see the outcome!
interesting if it would be able to tell if you hooked just the valves back up, thats what some people do and just zip tie them out of the way
not having the vlaves plugged in is the biggest issue why didn't you weld them back in somewhere at the end just to be there ? also saw the O2 sensor dident see cats tho
Remember the good old days when you could do whatever you wanted to your car those days are slipping away
“aftermarket exhaust detected. please install an original ferrari exhaust and present to your local dealer for unlocking the ECM” 😂
Great try and hope you figure out the codes. Good job you did not cut the standard exhaust up yet.
I own a MB SL550 that I'm very proud of. A friend who has a Ferrari asked me to go with to drop off his Ferrari for service. I was with him when he talked to the service rep who asked him if he'd made any modifications to the car and it was a small thing - cosmetic if I remember correctly. They refused to work on it. On the way out of the dealership, one of the sales people said "Who owns that piece of sh-- Mercedes?" So we went to my MB shop and they said they would do the work for him. True story.
What was the mod?
Back pressure gaged check stock back pressure and match or "tune" the back pressure monitor
Emelia Hartford Awesome Video I think you a Great job Fabricating 458destroyers 296GTB's exhaust and I think that Cold start sounded absolutely incredible and I hope you manage to fix those Codes and that you don't get a Cease and Desist from Ferrari
I would just make a jumper harness to make it think it has the valves in the exhaust. Then try to run it again.
Sweet job on cistòm exhaust ty for sharing
back in my day i took like three different years of GM and one part that just fit and it worked like factory computers are over sold i want one computer running the engine and transmission that's adjustable / tunable
All you have to do is both your rear o2 sencers need o2 spacers b1 sencer 2 bank 2 sencer 2 both need o2 spacers or the ecu will detect cat below threshold or cat proformance
this could help and i suggested it but the car doesnt have any cats at all and valve system removed also probly doesnt help but im not too knowledgeable on all the new valve stuff.
Ok… what is going on is the lack of back pressure is increasing airflow in the inlet during cam overlap and/or effecting the turbos and there output and/or changing the EGR flow. I suspect it is the EGR thing… and would start there…. see you are going to have to increase exhaust pressure so the EGR flow balances somewhere close to stock. Remembering you decreased the exhaust back pressure after the turbos… which will affect the pressure in the exhaust before the turbos. Likely reduced engine performance. And, reduced the volume and pressure of the EGR flow into the inlet.
Usually, EGR flow is calculated and mapped in the ECU using EGR valve position indication and the signal from the Inlet Mass Flow Air sensors output, i.e. inlet airflow. That will throw all kinds of codes because it changes the emission mix of gases, likely increasing NOx, and definitely a EGR flow as well as an inlet airflow code or problem. The other problem is the ECU sees an increase in NOx correlated to the other emissions, performance, and other sensors of all kinds. And, the signals from the removed cats will defiantly be another issue. Not the engine won’t be capable of mechanically running! It just won’t electronically correlate to the mapped conditions it was developed to.
My suggestion is put the stock system back on the car…. And, simply tune the exit of the exhaust system to increase noise… remember you have a lot of exhaust flow to work with. I’d design a new exit to be a cone tube with about a 10 degree divergence angle per side 20 degrees total then place another smaller cone in that either a 5 degree per side or 10 degree total divergence angle Important the sizing should be where the smaller cone small end is OD about 7/8th to no less than 3/4the size of the small end of the larger outer cone. I would make smaller cone small OD end .9 the size of the outer ID small end. Tune by moving the inner small cone in small increments out or back inside the outer cone which will adjust exhaust flow proportion between the cones and tune the sound GOOD LUCK !
Nice job on the exhaust 458 destroyer is going to love it so much just get those codes cleared and she'll be screaming down the highways
Car enthusiasts like modifying cars..so when a manufacturer makes its car throw error codes for that reason it is shooting itself in the foot because that segment of buyers will go elsewhere
This is why Jay Leno hates Ferrari's. He loves to work on his own cars.
Nah that's not why Leno doesn't want a Ferrari!
Why not use the appropriate resistor to simulate the load that the valves have? Turn off any codes the valves might put off
Install the valves cut them out of the old and put them back in line or just cut them off and plug them in and see if that fixes u can bypass or reinstall
Novitec or Tubi exhaust is a good upgrade for ferrari with no issues. Love your videos 🤩
I don't have a Firrari, but on my car I had to disconnect the battery for something, and when I connected it up again, the car completely won't start, and only the main dealer can fix it! Some things on new cars Suk!!!
It's a brand new Nissan Juke Tekna+ Mk2 (f16 shape), I also had the roadside assistants (the UK's RAC) come out to fix it, and there is no communication to the ECU at all, so can't pull any codes! He checked all fuses and relays but eventually left saying he cant fix it! The keyfob still can lock and unlock the car, it will even turn on the ignition and let you crank the car, but the fuel pump won't start up, so no fuel, the cars SOS light on the ceiling is red when it should be green, there is no immobiliser light, but like I said there's no communication to the cars computer management system, it's like the ECU is fried! But... how can this happen from just disconnecting the Negative cable on the battery for 10 seconds and then reconnecting it!?
So now I have to wait a month with no car until the main dealer can fit me in for a repair!
How are you gonna get codes off a scanner ? Car is too new. No one has copied through software yet
