Default Exhaust Recommendations?

Hey guys,

I'm looking to get an exhaust for my 09 Wrangler X. Lost some power as I expected after I put my lift and larger tires on. Recently got a K&N intake which has helped with some power gains.

I'm completely impartial to any brand so I'm open to any suggestions. I have read great things about the MBRP and Dynomax exhausts, but wondered if there were other manufactures that others were using with great success.

My rig is pretty much a daily driver at the moment, but have plans to make it a bit more trail ready (winch, CB, drivetrain, etc) within the next few months.

Thanks for all your help. Love JKF.

Cheers.

I have an mbrp and love it. Sounds good. Best feature is that the muffler is moved to in front of rear axle and it is much smaller. No huge can underneath the rear bumper.

Nice. I've heard the DynaMax have a great sound. Do you have a lot of drone in the cabin though?

I went with flowmaster. the only thing i don't like about it is that it crackles a little when you let off the gas with low rpm...
