Prices usually go up at the beginning of every year for many reasons. Materials prices along with increased taxes and other new regulatory burdens are the big ones right now.

Its probably because ram material prices for most metals are way up oh wait nope they are at 10 year lows, probably from shipping cost fuel cost are probably high wait nope fuel prices also at 10 year lows. I cant figure it out I see the same at work with stuff we buy prices going up with material prices going down i cant wait to see what happens when material prices shot back up more price increases.

I don't know about you guys...but $900 for an axle back is ridiculous..."you gotta pay to play" yeah yeah we get it, but that price is uncalled for

I have a friend looking into new cat-back exhaust for his 911 Turbo..... Shortest system I've ever seen and it's well over $4000. Plus shipping.

Yeah but that's a Euro car...everything for those cars is expensive..always has been...the Borla ATAK exhaust is what I really wanted but for no increase in hp (as mentioned above) and for that price...I just took your advice when I put my headers on and kept my stock exhaust...if I wanted that catback I could easily get me a Fast 102 with a Nick Williams throttle body and probably have change left over...or how about just a few hundred dollars away from a cam install...or tires? lol theres so much to be had for that amount...
