Maybe pictures will help you understand.

This



Does exactly the same as this



Air flows through it and then out of it...that's it.

And don't talk to me about weight, you don't have an F1 car.

Forgot to mention no one ever sees it and it sits 3 inches away from the asphalt.

No offense meant. I like shiny things too, but damn guys.
Not trying to justify the price, which is a bit high, but that's probably only true if you're just looking at the flow itself. If you're talking about sound waves, they are affected by things as minute as a 1 degree bend here instead of a 2 degree bend there. People seem to forget that research and development isn't free (price isn't just the sum of the materials involved), and to get something that sounds that good, I'm sure they had to do a hell of a lot of both.
