New AAM 3" R-Line exhaust

Pricing does not make any sense. Considering instead of any mufflers they are using resonators which are cheaper. Going from 2.5 to 3 inch piping does not equal $600.

Hell, you could probably print that picture out and take it to an exhaust shop (a good shop) with a mandrill bender and get that system made for less than half of what they are asking.

Exactly.. Building an exhaust is not rocket science, yes some thought needs to be put into it but nothing too crazy.. This exhaust looks something that would go on a mustang. It really looks identical to my friends Borla Stinger exhaust on his cobra.. Which he paid less than 700 for brand new.

I've ran sever brand name exhausts on my G(HKS, Stillen, Megan racing, X02{HKS knockoff}).. All were cool until I designed my own using the Stillen X pipe.. Had a guy use that X pipe and build the rest using mandrel bends that dumped into two canister mufflers.. Not only did it sound better than any of the above it exhausts, but it was way cheaper and had the most gains.
