Definitely not an easy or cheap swap.
You would need the entire R exhaust from the rear axle back, and a complete rear R valance and diffuser, both of which cost a bomb.
Maybe, just maybe, you could swap with an R owner who prefers the S exhaust set up, but I suspect it might not be as simple as that.

It appears the rear diffuser/valence is going to cost roughly $3K. The most expensive pieces of plastic ever.

I am look forward to your completed project. I am considering doing this. I am also hoping I can find an exhaust from a wrecked V8. Do you recommend a place to look for parts from wrecked cars?

Good luck. Finding the standard V8 muffler was pure luck. I don't know if the 35lbs you save by going to the SVR exhaust will be worth it unless the seller doesn't know what they are worth or you get it for free. I'll just keep filling my car up 3/4 way for now LOL.
