Cherry bomb exhaust. Where to buy
Heard these sound pretty good on the XJ's and I have searched a few threads. But most sites I have looked at do not include the XJ in the parts compatible. Any suggestions on where to buy a cherry bomb exhaust. Thanks.

I wouldnt put one on a XJ.
Had one on my 98 for a very short amount of time, and it sounded awesome, but the drone got annoying.
Plus youd be better off getting a straight pipe instead of a cherry bomb. Sound almost the same, easier to find, and cheaper.
Id personally go with a Flowmaster.

I made the mistake years ago underestimating back-pressure...

Looks like u live in WY... i'd just delete ur cat and muffler and pipe it all the way back w/ the same stock diameter... this way you keep your back pressure somewhat yet get a nice sound if that's what you're after...

Since its illegal to delete your cat, just do what I did. I took a few different sizes of pipe and punched it completely out. Or get a high flow cat.
If you do straight pipe it, dont plan on driving at the same RPM on the highway. Will literally drive you insane IMO.

A buddy of mine did a Cherry Bomb exhaust on his XJ back in highschool. Bought it at an Autozone I think. It uh, sounded, uh, cough, unique...
Honestly, it sounded terrible - like a slightly broken diesel truck. On top of that, it droned on the freeway something fierce. We lived in the same neighborhood albeit with about a quarter mile of distance between us. I could ALWAYS hear when he left or came home. ALWAYS. Clear as day.
To each his own I suppose.
