Not outrageously expensive.

Other than the uber expensive JDM folks (SARD, Amuse, Tommykaira all make Ti exhausts) there is a company Freed Engineering who was working on a lightweight single-exit Aluminum catback which was going to be around $600-700. You can search their username on here, but I don't know where they are with development right now, it's not out yet. Weight of it was supposed to be 10-11lbs. Aluminum isn't going to last forever but it will probably last long enough especially if you don't use it through snow/salt/etc.

I just bought a Perrin catback and one of these: http://tinyurl.com/8mp9w4y
I plan on using it as a turndown attached to where the Perrin midpipe meets the muffler, for larger events to save the muffler weight. I'm just cutting off the portion after the 90 degree. I'm sure it will be loud and sound like a tractor or something but oh well.
