Default Quiet Aftermarket Exhaust

Is there a company that makes an exhaust that relocates or increases ground clearance WITHOUT getting loud like a riceburner?!?

have you looked at the dynomax VT muffler?

maybe not exactly what you're looking for but, something closer.

Thanks for this post.
I like this one I think, and it comes up to around $100 bucks... Is this just cut the stuck one off and clamp this one in?

At this time we do not have a bolt on exhaust kit that incorporates the VT muffler for the JK yet, we will in about 3 months or so. What can be done, easily for a shop, is to install this muffler under the JK.
We are suggesting PN 17956 (for a 2.5" system or 17957 for a 3" system) for the over 4.0 liter engine. As we all know you have to be on the gas a lot in JK's.

Yeah is there any other options out there. I hear that it helps out a little on the power as well.

Check out JeepSWAG. Some folks complain it sounds too much like stock. Brett Woods (company owner) promotes it as giving a nice note when you get on it, but otherwise quiet. It does require that you relocate the evaporative canister ...

JeepSWAG Cat-back Exhaust

Brett is also a forum sponsor, so it's nice to support them (and there are other forum sponsors that offer mufflers).

test drove a used jeep for my girl this weekend with the Borla standard location exhaust. It was suprising how quiet and smooth it sounded. Borla is top dog in exhaust manufacturers.

pricey though
