I collect my new F12 in 3 weeks. There is plenty of google and forum chat about 430/458/California remote valve control, but very little on F12. I have ordered the Capristo remote valve control as that seems the best of all worlds - loud all the time even in Wet mode on the Mannetino if you want, up to Sport and quiet. ie it delinks the vehicle dynamics from the exhaust control.

Has anyone installed or had a dealer install one on an F12? If so how long did it take and is the noise to your liking post install. I'm coming from an Aston V12 Vantage with QuickSilver Supersport, which was awesomely brilliant....

Hah! Comes to us all. I will try the removal of the vacuum lines first to see if its ever too loud, and if so fit the controller.

Just had the vacuum lines disconnected by a local indie Aston Martin specialist. Awesome. Not too loud at all, just nice. Very easy to lower the undertray, disconnect the blue vacuum lines from valves, plug holes and done. Lovely. Dealer staff thought it sounded great but weren't allowed to do it themselves.
