IMO the gains of a straight through muffler over a chambered muffler are minimal. I had a Flomaster catback on my '04 SVT Cobra with a Whipple twin screw blower. It made 608rwhp with it installed. I switch to a Borla Stinger catback and I got 612, on a cooler day with less humidity. So who knows where the minimal gain came from. That is at the 600 rwhp level, which is closer to 650-660 at the engine. I would imagine on a 202 hp 3.8 v-6 the gains would be non-existent with a straight through over the chambered. Not even noticeable. I've had 4 catbacks on my Cobra and really, it boils down to sound. Put on a catback that you like and sounds good.

I put a FLOWMASTER 40, right in front of the Evap can and ran both pipes, back and over the drivers side of the rear axle-out about a foot each side of the hitch

Sounds BITCH'N

The Flow-40 fits great, the Flow-50 won't fit without moving the Evap can

Sound clip of my glasspack (cherry bomb)

Also pointed the tip straight at the ground to get it a little louder.

Has anyone tried the Dynomax 17222? It is listed as being for a V8 Mustang, so not sure how it would sound on a V6 JK...

The only way I found the part number was in the Dynomax Cat-Back instructions for the JK 4-door. I don't see a need for the entire system when I can just get the muffler separate for $80.

TIA
