Muffler Questions
Hello all, Im new to the forum but not to jeeps... I have a question, Im putting a new muffler on my 89 xj. I would love to go with a 40 series flowmaster, but I have heard that I should go with a 50 due to loss of back pressure. Is this the case? Thanks

are some videos from XJ's with Flowmasters. Kind of give you an idea of what they sound like and what not.

i love my 40. you need the 'boom' tube on it as well. its not for looks, in fact i hate the way it looks. it sounds a lot deeper with it on. the boom tube is the thing on the end of the muffler in the first two vids.

I have a flowmaster on my 4.0 and It is nice and quiet. I'm not sure if it is a super 40 or not. It was on the jeep when I got it. If I had my choice I would go with a magnaflow. It is 2.5" from the collector back and still has the cat. It sounds good enough for me to leave it alone!

I had a 40 series delta flow on my 4.3L S-10. As for back pressure, you'll be fine. In MY opinion you don't need a boom tube...unless you like them, of coarse...
