Not say an 800 dollar exhaust is bad, but spending the few extra can get you a bit more quality. On the topic of the parts being expensive compared to other cars, well part of it has to do with the amount of cars sold, plus factor in only X% of those who buy mod so on a lower production car aftermarket prices are higher to cover R&D.
Yep, that's why I thought Challenger parts were high....I think its production numbers are much lower than even the Z.

However, I got my Magnaflow exhaust for the Challenger for $650 shipped. $1000+ for exhaust wow. I need to do some more digging to see if it really sounds much better than stock. On the Challenger it had to have something, this car not sure. I tested the exhaust back to back on the dyno on the Challenger and it only gained 5HP, but man it sounds WAY better.
