Not sure what year you've got but here's 1993-2000. Read the dynomax off details to make sure the part number matches.

Thank you! My xj is a 95 so that is the right year for me, but that price is over $100 more.

I HAD a glasspack on my jeep with the rest of the exhaust stock. Weed eater? absolutely not. I rumbled at idle, not the "spit" with ricer idle. It outright growled when you hit the gas, didn't "fart" like a ricer. I went to a high school where the 3 types of student vehicles were ricers, 4x4's, or muscle cars. My Jeep didn't sound like any of those fart can packing POS things. mine was a glasspack so with the turbo it definately shouldn't sound like a ricer at all. If you want SUPER cheap: straight pipe it and run it out the side. I spent a total of around $25 for mine( would have been $11 but the additional $14 was because I routed it out the drivers side and not the passenger side) Piping, clamps, and hangers all included. It may sound ridiculous but if you someone didn't know any better they may easily mistake it for a V8.

Then they haven't heard a straight pipe V8, that **** is unmistakable I dont care if you dont know anything about cars. And for the record I hate ppl that put coffee cans on cars and think they get HP, if your pipe is 1 3/4" in diameter and you slap a 4" muffler on the end it aint gonna do **** but annoy ppl, thats like when this guy told me that if you put one of them big ol' spoilers one the back of your car you gain HP, hahahaha..... hahaha that was the hardest I've ever laughed in my life.

If you want cheap, mean, and power gaining system, weld your own exhaust buy parts form summit racing +1, 3" pipe, cat delete no muffler, then it will sound like J8 (haha jeeps version of v8)

I didn't mean a straight piped V8 per-say. Just the "pulse" from the exhaust. It sounds identical to my friends bronco with a 351 (Flowmaster cat back w/ a 50 series) Yeah I'm with ya on the fart can= HP nonsense. I laugh my *** off as I blast by them at barely half throttle as the try to push the gas pedal through the floorboard.

EDIT: this was the regular round cylinder red painted cherrybomb. I guess the turbo is different. sorry!
