Default Exhaust System 1999 Cherokee Sport 2 Door

I need to replace the complete exhaust system on my 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 Door excluding the manifold because of rust/corrosion. What should I expect to spend?

Thanks for the offer; however, I am in West Palm Beacg, Florida. How much will the complete Borla Exhaust System cost you? How do you accommodate the 02Sensor?

Will your new exhaust system add horsepower and improve your mileage? If so, please estimate by how much?

That is an impressive increase in MPG. Is that attributable to the new high performance cat?

Look at Dynomax for cat back. They have a rebate going on right now where you can get a full cat back for around like $75. Get a high-flow cat for cheap from ebay. Don't know about the manifold though.

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I just bought the 17340 Dynomax Cat Back Exhaust System from Amazon.com for $142.95 and that includes free shipping. PLUS I get a $75 rebate from Dynomax. That is an unbelievable deal - net cost is $68!!!!!!

Importantly, my mechanic just told me that is all I need. He says the cat and all other parts between the exhaust manifold and the muffler are stainless and in excellent shape.

What should I expect to pay for the seemingly simple installation of the Dynomax System?
