That system is actually one of our best selling products right now! Here's a quick clip of what it sounds like. We're sure other jk owners on here run this exhaust and can post up their videos too. If you happen to have any questions, feel free to shoot us a PM or call!

I have this exhaust. My two negatives I have are...before I change exhaust I change rear bumper to PS rock brawler with tire carrier. I check with Magna flow for any issue they said no. Well it fits but it is really close to bumper. PS is thicker. Second finish I am not happy with. Until the other day it had not seen snow. 2 years old. Rusting. Not happy.

I installed today! Love the sound. Fits snug with barely a finger gap between my HR bumper. I figured i would have to remove every three years or so n re powder-coat. Todays coating do not seem to last long.

Has the exhaust had any issues with your new bumper? Our systems are designed for use with the stock body panels/bumpers, so different ones can change the fitment and clearances. When you have a chance, please give us a call at 1-800-990-0905. We'd like to speak with you about the exhaust, and get some additional details about the rust. This may be something that we can cover under your lifetime warranty.

Glad to hear that you are happy with it!

I ran them two years. They sound great. Only two complaints. They rust and if you wheel, you will smash your tips. They look awesome when new but after a shelf or seven, they only help build back pressure. Here is before and after I cut them back.

The smashing thing isn't limited to a single brand from what I've seen, but rather it's across the board. Went to an offroad show a while back in AZ and probably half the Jeeps they were showcasing for suspension, tires, lights, seatcovers, etc. had the rear exit exhaust tips that had been drug across terrain and deformed, some to the point that the lack of performance due to being 90% smashed shut, had to be noticeable.

Just something to think about from an exhaust design standpoint. Mine actually exits up under the Jeep, in front of the rear axle due to the rear suspension, and above the skid plates, so it's safe from the normal offroad issues.
