XYZ Racing Street Advanced Coilovers — Ferrari 488 GTB (with hydraulic lift, excl.control system) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2016-2026

The 488 GTB’s factory magnetorheological damping is brilliant when it works and an expensive proposition when it doesn’t – which is why a growing number of FE03-C owners are pulling the electronic system out entirely and going passive. The Street Advanced coilover for the 488 GTB is built around exactly that scenario: a full mechanical replacement that ships with the cancellation kit to disable the OE electronic damping, while keeping the factory hydraulic lift system live so you can still clear speed bumps and steep ramps without scraping the splitter.

For a mid-engined turbo V8 sat on Pirelli P Zeros, this is the spec sheet that matters – 720-way damping, road-or-track adjustability, and zero reliance on a dealer-tied control module that costs more than a set of tyres to replace.

What this coilover does for your 2016-2026 Ferrari 488 GTB

The 488 is a heavy mid-engined car with a famously rearward weight bias, and the OE dampers are tuned to mask that with software rather than mechanical grip. Switching to a fully passive setup with 720 incremental damping adjustments hands that decision back to the driver: soften the fronts for a long motorway run, firm everything up before a track session at Goodwood or Bedford, and the car responds without a laptop or a dealer plug-in tool. Ride height is fully adjustable on a Ferrari that left the factory sitting higher than most owners want it. Combined with the hydraulic lift kept in circuit, you get the stance you actually want from a 488 GTB without sacrificing the ability to drive it out of a multi-storey. The electronic damping cancellation kit clears the dash light and lets the car run cleanly on the new setup.

About the Street Advanced coilover

Street Advanced is XYZ Racing’s most popular series and the one developed specifically for cars that split their life between road and circuit. The platform has been refined over years of competition use by the XYZ engineering team and validated in international racing before being released for street application. The 720-way damping range covers everything from a compliant fast-road setting to a stiff track-focused configuration on a single set of dampers, which is the point of the series. Construction is built for repeat heat cycles rather than a single hot lap, and the adjustment range is wide enough that a 488 owner can genuinely use the same coilover for a Sunday drive and a Cadwell trackday without compromise on either end.

Fitment for the Ferrari 488 GTB (2016-2026)

This kit fits the FE03-C chassis 488 GTB built between 2016 and 2026, specifically the variant fitted from factory with the front-axle hydraulic lift system. It excludes the control system itself and includes the cancellation kit required to disable the OE electronic damping module on installation.
