Exhaust flap control for racing car
for electric actuators
Would you like to install a flap exhaust on your race car, but the base vehicle does not have a control system?
This is the right solution for you.
The FlapControl Universal is an exhaust flap control system that is specially designed for converted vehicles.
The control is available for one, two or even three electric exhaust valves.
Both the same and different brands of exhaust systems can be installed.
The flaps are operated manually using the radio remote control and can also be controlled separately if there are several flaps.
e.g.
BMW M4 exhaust on a 335i
Mercedes C400 exhaust with C63S exhaust
Mercedes SLK R171 with R172 AMG exhaust
We support almost all common exhaust systems.
Please ask us before you buy if your project is supported (vehicle type and exhaust).
The valve control includes the following features:
Connection cable with suitable plugs for the actuators of the exhaust valve
Radio remote control
12-volt connection cable
Optional: control via switch/button
Modes
OPEN (AUF)
The OPEN function opens the exhaust flap 100%.
The mode can be changed using the remote Control.
CLOSE (ZU)
The CLOSE function closes the exhaust flap 100% until you set another function.
Closing the exhaust flap reduces noise emissions.
In this mode, RPM, speed, engine load, or similar factors have no influence on the position of the exhaust flap.
Please note that this can cause permanent damage to the Vehicle.
Start mode
The start mode determines how the throttle control should behave when starting the engine.
You can set the start mode yourself using the remote control.
You also have the memory function. Here, the start mode is automatically set to the state in which the vehicle was turned off and then starts accordingly.
Memory function
PLUS variants only. With the memory function, the flap control unit remembers the mode that was last set.
If the vehicle is then restarted after being parked, the last set mode is reactivated.

The offer refers to one flap control per vehicle of the type listed above.
This takes into account how the vehicle's exhaust flap is controlled and how many flaps it has.
This means that only one control is required per vehicle.
Our flap controls are designed for racing vehicles that have a controllable exhaust flap on the rear silencer ex works.
Please note that the selection of items is only a basis for your vehicle and does not mean that an exhaust flap is present.
In some vehicles, the presence of the exhaust flap also depends on the engine, equipment, or year of manufacture.
If possible, check the usability of the control unit before purchasing. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
For racing cars without factory-fitted exhaust flaps, we offer control units for exhaust conversions or modifications
