You can get it installed at the dealer too, they just would need to know the part number to order it (they could get the part number off of the Port Installed Options list) - The difference between Port Installed and Dealer Installed is primarily for leases as you can add a Port installed option to the MSRP of the vehicle and roll it into the lease while a dealer installed option cannot be. This is advantageous because you'd only pay the residualized cost of that option instead of the full cost of that option. For example, lets say the Exhaust costs $2000, it would add $2000 to the price you pay for the car. But it should only add roughly $800 over a 36 month lease or about $22/month to your lease.
Of course if you get it installed at the dealer you could ask them for the original exhaust or if you lets say installed it yourself you could do the same. Then when it was time to turn in the lease again you could take off the exhaust and try to sell it. Lets say it costs $2000 and you're able to somehow sell it used for $1200, it would be roughly the same. You could come out ahead if you could sell it for more. But in the lease example you don't have to go through the hassle of trying to sell it.
