Just ask @cosine he knows!
Just installed mine today, sounds really good, much better than the Dynomax delete pipe I had on prior. Turns the volume down but lets you know you have a motor when you get on it, a much more pleasant drive now :)
Perfect fit too!
Big shout out to @MoJoe for a superb transaction, arrived in flawless condition and he went above & beyond to make sure it arrived that way :)

Mine came in last week, but I have not had time to install it and the temperatures outside are not quite warm enough this week to try, but I plan to install it as soon as it warms up.

Git R done! Seriously, the install is very easy and takes less than 1 hour. You are going to love it.

I bought mine from HotExhaust.com about this time last year and couldn't be happier. I believe they have the best price and that discount really helps-the shipping and communication from them was top notch.

The magnaflow sounds great with NO drone and really balances the look under the rear bumper.. Jeep should have made this type of exhaust standard.

Yep, it is really easy and I have already had 5 practice runs:

OEM -->Borla Touring
Borla Touring-->Borla S Type
Borla S Type-->Borla S Type (peeling coating)
Borla S Type-->Borla S Type (peeling coating)
Borla S Type-->OEM (peeling coating)

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fully agree on the service and price from HottExhaust. Free shipping and no sales tax, hard to beat that combination.

Had a few aftermarket exhausts in my day, must say the initial quality on this setup is very high. They did a nice job w/ the reinforced anchors too, very solid mount vs. most other brands that I've seen for the JL.

Anyone have any sound clips of this? Is there any drone inside? I had decided on the Corsa, but I think the tips look really goofy with how wide they are, and have held off.
One thing I absolutely cannot stand is loud drone.

@TOL JEEPER - was very kind to make these for me and is what helped me make my decision. I had two different Borla's (Touring and Type S) prior to buying this MagnaFlow:

Out of curiosity, are your tips pressed against the bottom of the bumper fairly tightly or no? I am trying to see if that is what it should be by design or if mine is just a bit weird.

I think yours might be out of adjustment. Mine sits a little bit away from the bumper....definitely close but not at all touching.

Perhaps try loosening the clamp, putting something (a wedge) between both tips and your bumper and then retighten the clamp. Then pull the wedges and see if it holds that position.

I'll see if I can find a photo of mine that shows the spacing.

Mine has about an 1/8 of an inch. I did all the "adjusting" I could and that is where they sit. Did a 50 mile trip this afternoon and no issues. The tips were only warm to the touch on the outside.

Good sound, and no drone in the cabin.

I did have a question about the clamp. Mine seem REALLY tight, but no where near the 40-45 Foot lbs of torque the instructions called for. I wasn't going to push it since there was also a warning about over-tightning and breaking the clamp. I'll just keep an eye on it.

I will try that, but I could feel the tips pulling tighter against the bumper as I tightened the clamp. I will grab a couple of paint stir sticks to use as a wedge and see if I can get a gap going. I would not mind them touching, but they occasionally "knock" against the bumper.

I used Copper Anti- Seize on the clamp bolt threads, always makes it a bit easier to tighten down (and MUCH easier to remove if & when), I tightened to 40 ft lbs.
