Default Dyno max cat back exhaust

Does anyone have the Dyno Max cat back exhaust system? I am considering purchasing it, but am curious if it has a nice aggressive sound? or if it provides and performance upgrade? Here is the link, any feedback is appreciated.

I will be able to tell you in a couple of days about the sound. I am putting that on Thursday.

I just put one on mine.

It's ok, a little throatier at idle and a bit more pronounced under acceleration. Wouldn't call it a great sound, a bit agricultural IMO. It also drones slightly at interstate speeds. Great fit though, and in all honesty seemed to make quite a bit more power. My OE exhaust may have been restricted, but it easily lights the tires up now and struggled before.

I think it's a decent setup for the money. Good sized mandrel bent pipes, stainless tip, and no adjustment issues. Plus they have a hell of a rebate going - I got $75 coming back to me after paying less than $150 from Summit racing. Great deal!

Here's a link to Summit's site http://www.summitracing.com/parts/WLK-17340/

Sounds a little cheaper than what you had listed.

I've been running mine for about 9 moths. Like the sound but noticed yesterday that the muffler is now leaking around every single edge... Kinda bumbled cause this was going to transfer to my project but not now..

Its a good exhaust imo. Ive had mine on for about a month now and i love it. Its not to loud and you can definately tell a difference in sound and performance at idol and hard excelleration. It definately gives me a little more power at take off.

I have the whole set-up on my XJ for allmost 3 years now and on my ZJ for about a uear and am very happy with them.They have a nice sound and give more power.I've allways replaced with Dynomax on all my vehicles .The one on my truck is about 8 years old and still works pretty well,about due for new soon though.

I like the DynoMax muffler. It doesn't sound like stock, but it isn't too much louder. If you are looking for an aggressive sound, this may not be the one you want. But I think it sounds pretty good.

The one from mudfrog on here in the vender section is 100% better than the dynomax system. I was $105 dollars shipped to my door.
