That makes two of us.I wish I knew what a jumper is lol. My dealer installed mine.
Lamb2018. If your controller is as shipped it will be set to always open on startup. That is the only difference. If you want to have it revert back closed when you turn the car off, you will need to switch that jumper.
The other day I started up my EVO and the wife jumped while in the garage and staring at me when I fired it up..................hoping, at least, for the same impact with my STO.Please be aware,
On a 2022 you will not hear the valves open and close at idle with the valve controller. The 22 valves are reprogrammed stock differently then a 21 for louder db in Sto mode (start closed, idle open, then closes 2200, then reopens 4500) . Therefore you must rev it at idle to 2300 rpm , when they close in Sto mode on 22, to see the change take place with button. It is working. Just beware you will not hear the change unless your driving or you rev it up in park, 2300 rpm, and switch the button. All the best
All that nonsense is absurd. The had perfection in the form of the Performante. It’s complete madness that they would jack around with valves, or anything exhaust related.Please be aware,

That's what concerns me about the Tecnica. Maybe Lambo is forcing a slow burn on tempering down exhaust noise for upcoming regulations and they started with the STO. What if the Tecnica turns out to be a worse situation then the STO? A very real possibility. There might even be a GPF on US Tecnicas. After all Ferrari has them on the F8 and other US cars right now.All that nonsense is absurd. The had perfection in the form of the Performante.

Any experience with the Performante? I hate to beat a dead horse, but it’s a couple orders of magnitude better than the STO. I agree with the refined and nice sounding characterization. I’m just not sure that would be my target with for the “race car for the street” ethos.They had to change to exhaust in the Sto to conform to euro 4 emissions which took place on every 21 and up. Therefore they have an extra particulate filter. This is what I am found out through research, I could be wrong but these were my findings. I find the exhaust on the Sto very refined and nice sounding
I have never owned a Performante but I was wondering how the exhaust note of the EVO compares to the STO + Forza?Yes. I had a Performante for many years until i sold it in anticipation for my Sto. The Sto is light years ahead of the Performante is so many ways. I don’t want to bore you with technical bs as to why, but it is in every way. Again the decibel of the exhaust is out of their hands. It must conform to new euro 4 regulations and db rules or we won’t have an STO at all. There are ways to make it as loud as you wish. That’s the easy part
