Default Need help! Afe exhaust or mbrp

OK, just installed my superchips programmer 87 tune and it looks like im gonna need more power. I have a Airraid CAI and the programmer and was ready to buy the MBRP but just came across the AFE stainless system. Does anyone have the AFE and what do u think of it? They claim 13hp and 15 ft. lb. Looks like a nice system and little less then the MBRP stainless. I am really looking to see if anyone has a video clip of the AFE.

Thanks in advance and I will post any mpg increase with the new programmer if i get any....

If you really REALLY need more horsepower....... better get a blower or a hemi. I have both the MBRP SS muffler and the superchips tuner and no REAL hp increase. The muffler sounds great (what I bought it for) and the superchips makes things a little more smooth, allowed me to change tire size calibration, and reset TPMS pressures. I was down this road years ago with a Land Crusher and all I did was spend alot of money on a chip, and exhaust to turn a beauty of an underpowered beast into an EXTREMELY NOISY underpowered beast. Went into it this time with my eyes wide open.

I have the AFE mach XP..... its a stainless steel 3" and its wonderful.
After hearing so many exhaust from my friends. I LOVE mine and would do it again in a second.
Not too many people have them so when your out at a meet, alot of people ask what kind and
where I got it.

i have an MBRP and if you want a loud exhaust, than you should look some place else. It does have a low rumbled pitch. I also have it paired up with a cai & superchips, if your need is horsepower, save your money.

MBRP rocks. And with an intake, it does get deep and burbly. When I drive through underpasses with my top down it rattles the jeep.
