Default Exhaust system for jk wrangler 2007 3.8l V6

What can you recommend for an exhaust system cat back 2.5" exhaust system that nit only sounds good but will perform well?

Is 2.5" enough?
Any difference from a single and a twin pipe?

Chees!

Some folks have had issues, including myself, with duel exahust and a loss of power to the loss of back pressure. Unforunitly its hard to find any power in the 3.8 minivan motors in the JK.

So would you recommend from cat back??? Is it very loud in the interior of the jeep when driving? Keeping in mind my wife uses it as her daily school pickup car as well as my weekend wheeling car etc....

Also what size 2.5"??

Default Exhaust

I have the MagnaFlow Off Road Pro Series. 2.5" all stainless and dumps before the axle. You do hear more of the exhaust but it is not excessive.
