Ok I'm in a pickle or so to say. Looking to buy a cheap muffler to add a little growl to the XJ. I have a highflow cat right now. But want to add a better flowing muffler. Needing something cheap. So I have a few that come to mind that are cheap. Cherry bomb turbo, thrush welded, and thrush turbo. Those are all around $30 at my local parts stores. Which would you prefer? Sounds better/best? Any experience with any of the three? Any one prefer another that's around that price?

A lot of people run the cherry bomb and like it. I myself was gonna get the thrush turbo before I got my magnaflow.
You can go on YouTube and look up videos of people revving their jeeps with different mufflers

If you wheel your jeep at all, I would recommend a small form factor muffler to keep maximum ground clearance. I put a fairly large muffler on my XJ and regret it for that reason. I do like that it is fairly quiet even with just a turn down pipe.

I don't know if I want to spend the money on a flowmaster. I'd like too but I'm spending it on other stuff for the jeep. I have seen a ton of clips on YouTube but on my phone....I dont have a desktop computer with good speakers. So as far as sounds its hard to tell. I really want a Aero Turbine muffler but they are pricey. I don't do a ton of off roading. So that's no big deal. I think I want to go with the cherry bomb. I have read on here once or twice that the thrush isnt much louder then a stock muffler. And mine has a decent growl now just want something a bit louder and more aggressive. Mainly looking for better exhaust flow. Thanks for the input guys
