Ferraris use 180 degree headers, which is what makes it sound like a ferrari, and not a mustang. The sound definitely IS from the exhaust. They are one of the few companies that really tune the exhaust for sound.

You think the subaru boxer rumble comes from the engine? No it does not. It comes from very unequal length exhaust manifolds. Bolt on a set of equal length headers on a subaru, and it sounds like any other 4 cylinder engine.

Now, I am not saying capristo can make the z sound exactly like a 355, but they are a company that tunes their muffler for the sound, a very sexy sound.
