the speculation of an exhaust company means very little to me..

Speculation? The fact that the site hasn't been updated in months shows that at one point it was simply speculation. However, if you look at big auto parts companies recently updfated websites which actually SELL the parts, they also have the same exhaust systems listed for sale. You're telling me a multi-million dollar business is going to publicly announce that it will be selling a product, then come along with an "oops... there's not even a car that's going to fit the product we're marketing!"??? come on.

And do you think a multi-billion dollar company is going to stick to some random plan just out of consideration to some aftermarket exhaust company?

I looked up Flowmaster, Jegs, SummitRacing and Borla, and I do not see the 2009 Challenger only the one you listed.

It is easy to later make a few changes to engines sizes listed and who cares except for the few of us early birds.

I am not sure I am convinced that any plan has been shown to aftermarket companies yet.

So what other ones are there other than Magnaflow? You made it sound like there was several, I am just looking to find them.

lets also keep in mind that the challenger is sitting on a slightly altered LX platform..which means that any listings could easily be for a charger or magnum...lets also keep in mind that the odds are very good that not a single one of these companies has gotten their hands on a challenger for R&D, because if dodge was sending out challengers for R&D to aftermarket companies, you can guarantee that the news would get out about that...pictures would surface, etc...

tha very well could be magnaflow (who is trying desperately to catch up with the bigger companies like pipes or flowmaster) getting some attention from people saying "hey look, magnaflow has challenger parts"...

As far as I know, no OEM ever sends cars to aftermarket companies for development, and certainly not before the car has been launched.

i know how companies deal with fitment issues on new models...do you?

No, because I never worked with an aftermarket company. I only worked with the OEM, and I know we never wasted time dealing with aftermarket companies at all, ever.
