i have a high flow magnaflow cat (50 state legal) and a glasspack connected right to it. its all 2.5" and has a custom tailpipe coming off the glass pack which curves right before the rear shackle, its all mandrel bent from the exhaust shop. sounds mean and loud, on the interior its not to bad and not a lot of drone to it. cost me buying my own parts and $75 in labor. just shot the breeze with him the whole time and he dropped it down to $45(plus a $20 tip).

i combined this with an intake, TB spacer, performance high flow injectors, upgraded ignition system and got a huge seat of the pants gain! I have yet to dyno it. i have the stock numbers so i just need to go in and have it redone.

I'm looking to do the exhaust on my Jeep as well. Unfortunately I'm in California, so I have limited options...Least expensive C.A.R.B. sticker headers? I want to keep it as legal as possible because I don't wanna deal with bull*****. How does Borla sound?

I have the Dynomax and it sounds damn good imo. 50 state legal and only $140 at Summit Racing. All bolt on with no surprises.

Yeah magnalfow for a Ford but its like flowmasters were made for Cherokees
Mines a 97HO and i have a 44 flowmaster. Ill get 2.5" soon too, maybe straight pipe, yes its illegal. But it eliminates a sensor and restriction and makes it sound more natural and deep throaty. Ill admit idle sounds like a honda civic but speeding up it or flooring it sounds like the monster we all want to hear. I noticed performance too.
