-That link mentions 2012+. I have a 2011, will it still work? I would assume so.
Yes, It will still work for the 2007-2011 JK System, just specify upon ordering.

-Does it rob any power?
In our in-house dyno tests, we have seen 20-30 peak HP drops when using a snorkel setup full time.

-Do I replace the spark plugs during install? If so, a brand that you suggest?
Our 2007-2011 JK supercharger system comes with a new set of spark plugs, just make sure to gap them to the specifications in the install manual.

-I think I might order the headers with resonator today too and just noticed you now sell an exhaust too. What vendor makes this for yall. Is their some sound clips of it?
Our Headers were designed by us, with the help of American Racing Headers. They do all the manufacturing so you can rest easy knowing you are getting the best headers money can buy. Sound clips are available on our https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87t2WI9OMec
-I had an MBRP, but ditched it for the Dominion exhaust, b/c I liked the note better. Which is yalls closer to you think?
We have just released our own exhaust. RIPP Exhaust

Hope this helps!

Any way for you guys to get a sound clip of your exhaust kit installed? Would want to hear it while in the cabin, and outside. Also, dBa measurements in and out of the cabin.

Am still looking for an aftermarket exhaust that doesn't sound like a honda tuner, fart can.

RIPP Exhaust
Props to your engineers. First after-market exhaust I've heard that does not have that "ricer" tone to it. Have to keep this one in mind in case some thing "accidentally" happens to our currently stock unit.

I like the quiet at low RPM's. One's I've been hearing on the trail have an annoying resonance at idle and trail speeds.
