Italian term or phrase: scarico trifuso
Same context as last question - description of the Ferrari California T. Am really at a loss as to
what trifuso might mean. Any enlightenment appreciated!

"Anche per il suono, con alcuni accorgimenti come l’albero piatto e lo ***scarico trifuso***, è stato possibile creare un suono intenso e avvolgente come si richiede a ogni Ferrari e nessun turbo era mai riuscito a fare."

three-piece (cast) exhaust manifold
Explanation:
I believe that strictly speaking it should be "collettore di scarico", exhaust manifold, rather than "scarico", meaning exhaust.

Here's another reference which also answers your other question:

"One major challenge involved in the design of the California T was to guarantee it a typically intense, exhilarating Ferrari engine sound. This was achieved through meticulous design work and the use of special manufacturing techniques for essential components, such as the flat-plane crankshaft and the three-piece cast exhaust manifold and turbo housing."

Example sentence(s):
  • The [California T's] engine comes with direct injection, twin-scroll turbines for sharp throttle response and a three-piece cast exhaust manifold to sound like a proper Ferrari should.
