I'm a little confused about what you're talking about here. The BRZ has a single exhaust. One pipe from the headers to the muffler in the back. Two pipes sticking out of one muffler is not dual exhaust.

They must have figured we were too smart to spend 8 grand for seats and a wing instead of actual performance.
Plz resist urge to fanboi
Your whole frame of reference for how much these things cost on a manufacturer/supplier level is off by a few orders of magnitude.
