Default 2011 Challenger R/T Exhaust

Just purchased the 2011 Challenger R/T and looking to upgrade the exhaust. The dealer is pushing the Mopar Catback System ($1800 plus installation). Although cost is not an issue, are there any other recommendations?

I haven't heard the Magnaflows, but I'm sure that they would sound pretty awesome.

I just got the Solo installed, and it is wicked. Musclecar sound, no drone, decent price.<

FWIW, the Mopar system is either a Corsa or a catback. In my opinon,. $1500+ for a catback is way overpriced.

x2 for Solo. Love it! You can adjust the "J pipes" to remove drone. Makes the car sound the way it should have from the factory. Sounds nice at idle and WOT but not overbearing.

If ya want reasonable sound go with a couple flowmaster mufflers or the cheaper non flowmaster knockoffs and a set of resonator delets from blastin bobs site, a few hundred bucks and great sound for a lot less, the stock setup isnt that bad with the xpipe, just change the mufflers and downsize the resonators or delete them totally

You might want to check and see if buying aftermarket product will cause any issues with your warranty in the future.

Bolt on aftermarket items will NEVER effect your warranty.

KRZY.BMET what aftermarket products don't affect the warranty. The main issue stopping me from changing my pipes right now are in regards to keeping my warranty. As well, what I have noticed in listening to these exhaust company sites is that the pipes have the slightest difference in sound and to pay approximately $2000 in order to here what I would have heard from a early generation muscle car doesn't seem worth it. Ultimately I would like someone to be honest and tell me whether changing out the pipes is worthwhile or simply an old fashioned enthusiast action.
