Valve Remote Control Kit
Unlock unparalleled control over your Aston Martin's exhaust symphony with the Capristo CES-3 Programmable On-Board Exhaust Remote Control Kit. Designed for Aston Martin models equipped with Capristo exhaust valves, this sophisticated system (also available as a replacement unit for existing Capristo remotes) allows you to precisely manage your exhaust's acoustic profile and optimize engine dynamics. The CES-3 intelligently monitors exhaust back pressure, strategically opening and closing exhaust valves to achieve an an ideal balance of power and drivability. At lower RPMs and throttle openings, a slight increase in back pressure enhances low-end torque for a more user-friendly experience. Under wide-open throttle and high RPMs, the valves open fully, releasing back pressure to maximize exhaust gas flow, increasing horsepower and unleashing a free-flowing, aggressive sound.
The CES-3 provides three distinct control modes: Cruise Mode, where valves open later for a quieter, more comfortable drive; Sport Mode, which allows quicker valve opening for an aggressive driving style; and Open Mode, where valves remain fully open, ideal for track use requiring maximum exhaust flow. The opening and closing points for Cruise and Sport modes are user-programmable, offering personalized sound management. The kit includes a stylish key fob (444Mhz) for convenient remote control, with a self-learning function for additional fobs. An integrated fail-safe mechanism ensures valves open in case of electrical or vacuum failure, preventing potential engine or header damage. With its easy-to-install wiring harness, the Capristo CES-3 kit offers a no-fuss upgrade, delivering complete command over your Aston Martin's captivating exhaust note.
