I'm looking to add exhaust and a cai to my 08 JK 2door. For exhaust i was thinking of Si/So flowmaster (40 series) and for the CAI i was leaning towards the Air Force One. My previous vehicle was a F-150 and I had really good results with the flowmaster, and AF1. I know a lot of people are using magnaflow exhaust, anyone heard the two and compared them. Is the flowmaster too loud? Is there any reason to opt against the AF1 CAI or are they all about the same?

Thanks for the help,
Curt

 

For CAI, i think any brand will yeild the same if not close results. For exhaust, if you don't want anything to loud, i would go with Flowmaster 50 series delta flow. I've just installed that last weekend, and love the sound. Plus, no droning going 60-70 MPH on highways. You can youtube the flowmaster 50 on JK.

 

I figured as much about the CAI (unless there is one that really relocates it to a cooler place in the engine bay). I don't mind it being a little loud (my f150 had flow 40 dumped) I'm wondering how much of a difference there is between the following: magnaflow, flowmaster 40, flowmaster 50. I want a non ricer throaty sound. Thoughts?

btw mine is a silver 2 door x too!

 

My flowmaster 50 is no where near ricey sound. I don't have any sound clips on mine, but if you search flowmaster 50 and JK on youtube, there is one there. There is also flowmaster 40 clip in this forum somewhere.
