For what it is worth.......................

After listening to "madirishman's" sound clip several times:

It is my opinion that the Super 44 has a deeper tone in comparison. I think both his and mine sound great.

Not that one is any better, or more pleasing to the ears, than the other. Just an FYI for those here considering which muffler they might want.

I am no expert by any means. If I can figure out how to post a sound clip or video I will. Then you all can compare...............

 

Nope highway is good not to loud at all. It reminds me of the Banks exhuast I had on my 03 Rubi But not even a 1/4 the price. This cost me $60.00 total.

 

Put this on today mkae the exhaust sound even better. Does not feel like it gasping for air anymore.

 

Just got done installing my Banks Monster Exhaust and AEM Cold Air Intake. Very pleased with the exhaust note.

I did'nt want something that would sound like a ricer, and with the V6 thats not hard to do. Alot of mufflers will give you a high pitch sound with the V6. Not so with the Banks Muffler.

I have'nt had time to take it up on the highway yet but in town I am very pleased..........

 

Any pics of the Banks system? Would love to see pics of the whole length of the jeep.

 

I am going over to the shop tomarrow and will see if I can get a photo for you while it's up on the lift.

 

I posted this up on another thread, and though it made sense here also. I'm selling a kit, with a True Mandrel Bent Stainless Steel Pipe. If interested, please PM me. This kit works on a 2 door, if you relocate the Evap Canister.

I have tested 5 mufflers in the last week. I've got video and sound for four of them. I'll post up video links as soon as I can.

I tested:
- Magnaflow 14377 14" X 4" X 9" Same side offset
- Magnaflow 10436 22" X 4" round Center in/out
- Magnaflow 11226 14" X 4" X 9" Center in/out and offset in/out
- Borla 40653 13.125" X 4" X 9.5" Center in/out and offset in/out
- Flowmaster 50 series 942554 17" X " X 9.75" Oval Same Side Offset

The following are my observations.

Both Magnaflow ovals, and the Borla sounded the same. I do not recall any difference at all. They all represent the most mellow deepest sound that I have heard on a JK.

The Flowmaster and Magnaflow round 4" both sounded very similar. Louder and and more ricey/tinnie/sharp sounding.

The Flowmaster is a very large muffler. The goal here was to see if a larger size created a deeper tone. Just the opposite turned out to be true... This muffler may be a good fit, if you wanted a louder muffler, and did not worry about clearance, or wanted to install in the stock location.

The Magnaflow and Borla with the Offset In, and Center Out would not fit in the location that I wanted to install the muffler. Both would be a good solution if you wanted to install the muffler in front of the Evap Can, on a 4 door.

Hands down the best muffler for the location where I wanted to install (just behind where the Evap Can was previously located) was the Magnaflow 14377. It has the best clearance, is well protected by the rear lower control arms and has as good a tone as any muffler that I've heard.

I have the Borla Dual Exhuast on mine and I love it. The only bad thing about it is its pretty expensive but I was lucky enough to get mine for $300 from a website that had it listed wrong awhile ago. So for that reason I especially love mine. If you do go that route the borla isn't loud. Its not going to make your Jk sound like a V8 but it wont make it sound like a ricer which was one of my main concerns. It has a nice low rumble.

 

Had a flowmaster on my truck but i like this magnaflow 6" that much more. Check it out sounds awesome.

Mine has a noticeable, but great sounding exhaust note. I have the Banks monster exhaust, AEM cai and Banks headers. Really gets people attention when you down shift, and run the rpms up a little.
