Magnaflow exhaust system for the JL

[Artec]

Has anyone noticed that the stock engine/exhaust note of the JL sounds much different then the JK? Not in any bad or intrusive way, but certainly different.

it's due to the different crossover pipe

I am not looking for performance gains, but the big muffler delete and exhaust clearance.

I've never had an aftermarket exhaust.
I like how they sound, but how much louder does it get inside the Jeep as opposed to being behind or around? I get that it depends on soft, hard, no top.

I'd like to know this as well! I'll have the premium soft top. I won't mind extra loudness with top off for obvious reasons but don't want a lot of extra noise in extended road trips with top up. I've never had an aftermarket exaust. Anyone know % of higher decibel these would be?

I played musical chairs with the exhaust on my JK because most of them sounded terrible. 2 MBRP systems and then an AFE system. I can say without a doubt the only exhaust I will consider is the AFE system. MBRP really tried, they sent me new clamps when it leaked, sent me a free resonator when it sounded like a Civic and never was able to get a decent sound out of it. I didn't want it loud and I sure didn't want it to sound like a coffee can full of bumble bees. I had the MBRP system welded up thinking it was leaking, didn't help. I finally called Northridge and they assured me the AFE was a good unit. I installed that and it was perfect. Only slight increase in noise and it fit the first time. If I remember correctly it was stainless too.

Saw they just posted this clip on IG. Sounds really good IMO I'll be preordering one next week. I also like that they're offering a delete pipe again for the silly exhaust loop.

On my old JK, their axle back was the perfect volume-just loud enough to tell that it wasn't stock, but totally comfortable to daily drive. In my experience, the offroad system that cuts off before the rear axle is the only Magnaflow that's loud.

We installed a Magnaflow JLU kit earlier today on David's Red Rubicon.

It was very simple and didn't take too long to install.
