Well i installed a Borla Single Cat-back over the Dual.

Reason:

I felt that a single would be better over the Dual as i dont want to lose to much back preasure. Maybe i am wrong but thats why i went for single.

As for the make, well i have tried various makes on my TJ and Borla has always made the best. I have noticed the difference after installing it, much better over stock any day. As for the sound well it aint loud at all you get a bit of a grunt but not like you would if its on a TJ.

I have the dual borla catback and I noticed an increase in mpg and the sound is very nice, which was my main reason for buying it.

Default Don't forget Magnaflow

I put on a Magnaflow cat-back. I love the sound and have also noticed an increase in power. Add that to your list...

Yes, Borla sells a muffler back kit. Check out www.4wd.com or www.quadratec.com, both are Sponsors had have it.

Borla is the only way to go in my opinion for quality, sound and durability. Have ran on over 10 vehichles now.

Default Banks is the way I went

6 months ago A friend of mine was driving a Titian with the banks system, Loved the sound. Did some research and found out that banks offered it for the jk. Ordered directly from banks. Love the sound and yes a little more power. A catback system, CAI and jetchip together and you will notice the difference. Now that the power is done, lift , tires, gears next. Wife starting to call it the money pit.

I am trying to do the same thing that you just accomplished. Going for the power first. Ok, I order the banks system. What cat back exhaust system do you recommend? Do you have an estimated price of each and where to order?

I just spoke with Banks. They have the headers for $632. However, he didn't think they had released the cat-back system for the 2-door yet? Anyone have information?

What makes the Banks better than Borla?
