I have the axel back magnaflow in black. It’s pretty mellow at the low RpMs but sounds great above 3k, for a V6. No drone

That's our axle-back in a nutshell! They are designed with daily driven Jeeps in mind, so they maintain a nice, mellow cabin volume during normal highway driving. If we can answer any other questions about them, just let us know!

I installed the Gibson single exhaust. Sounds really good, not raspy or ricey sounding and NO DRONE!! Fit like a glove, fit and finish perfect! $389 shipped on Amazon! I can't figure out how to upload an mp4?

Im also in the dilemma of exel back magnaflow, flowmaster, gibson or afe. Is a one time purchase and i want to get it right. I use my sahara as daily driver and i have to say that being stock is super quiet. Want to keep that cabin quietness and have that growl sound at the same time without being obnoxious lol. Also want quality. Any thoughts

I like how that Gibson kit cleans up the two factory restrictions in the rear of the system. Nice. Does the Magnaflow kit look the same?
