Gonna be installing a flow master 40 tomorrow night. Gonna be mounted under the drivers side rear passenger seat with a down turn before the rear axle.

Well, I picked the jeep up today from the shop but was only able to drive it for about a mile to my work.

Sounded AWESOME at idle and rpm's under 3k.

Over 3K rpm's it sounded a little ricey I think.
I'll drive it more and give feedback. I'm hoping it deepends up a bit in the higher RPM's. If not I will be trying a new muffler instead of the 40. I couldn't be happier with the deep tones of the exhaust at idle and at low rpm's.

Its rediculously easy... I definitely don't see a reason to purchase a "kit" of any kind... this whole deal cost no more than $100.00 including the muffler.

I may end up swapping it out to a 50 or 60 series muffler if the higher RPM sound starts to bother me.

Like I said... the lower RPM sounds abolutely insane. Love it... just don't know about the highway sound how its gonna be.. Ive only tavelled a mile so far and it was all city under 45 MPH.
