Default MBRP Offroad cat back exhaust

In the process of purchasing an Offroad exhaust system. Want to hear from others that have this cat back system in terms of sound. Are you happy with this. Muffler is small and behind the driver. Thank you.

I have one on my rig and am pleased with it. Was a bit loud for my tastes when it went on but has mellowed over time. I was tired of denting my OEM muffler so made the switch.

Would do it again

I just installed my MBRP Off Road exhaust on my 2010 Unlimited. Great quality product, nice clean sound but no performance gains.

Outstanding exhaust system. Great quality and good sound. Quieter than the Gibson and tucks away nicely.

i ahve one on my 12. Sounds great, it is a little loud but i still like it. My 3 year old says I sound like Lightning Mcqueen. No performance gains, but I did pick up about 1.5 MPG on the interstate with it. No noticable mpg gains around town.

I installed the MBRP on my 07 about a month ago. I am pleased with the sound especially at idle and I have found that I can climb RPMs a little quicker than before.

A little loud, no performance gains, mine didn't bolt up well enough to there was a leak and I ended up welding it. It's probably the only MBRP product I haven't lost all the love for. I'd like to find a way to move the muffler further back. In hind sight I wouldn't have gone with the offroad version that puts the small muffler in the vehicles center area. It keeps it safe but it gets really old for DD. On the trail it's fine, on a daily basis it's annoying.
