Default cat back exhaust

anybody have any personal experiences with cat back exhausts for our xj's.

i am going to need an exhaust soon and saw that we got a couple different options like dynomax, magnaflow, gibson, pacesetter.

so im wondering if anyone has any personal experience with any of these and maybe have some review or sound clips possibly? i like the price of the dynomax

if you shop around a little bit i think you'll end up going wit the dynomax. i don't know how much you are trying to spend but the dynomax seems like the best value which is what i bought for myself a few months ago and i have no problem. its not to loud but definitely sounds much better than stock. if money isn't really an issue i'd get the borla cat back system.

YA if money is no issue get the Borla Cat back and header, big gains there. Ran that set up on my old YJ and loved it. TONs of low end torq..

search and find a header thread. most guys say its not worth the money for a banks header. there are cheaper headers that work great. it seems you could be paying 1-2 bills for that fancy banks power sticker.

i have a cheap dynomax cat back on my jeep. its just as quiet as stock but has a little deaper sound to it.

Everyone I know gets Flowmaster's for their Jeeps which sounds nice. I on the other hand jacked up my muffler bad by smashing it on a rock.
So in that case I just took it all off and just ran it off the cat with a down pipe. Its not too loud and sounds good!
Thats the cheaper good sounding solution for me.
