I dont know what to pick???? i had a CJ-7 with a 360 and dual cherry bombs and it sounded pretty good and fairly loud......but i also like the sound of flowmasters :-| .......cant decide so help me out fellas!!! Thanks for any input!

Straight pipes off the headers! If you want legal, check the restrictions for your state. I think in some states, other than noise violations, you might be able to use a spark arrestor instead of a muffler. I'd verify that first though.

I've got a pair of 2 1/2" MagnaFlow mufflers on my AMX and a Single 3" on my CJ. I like the sound. Quiet enough at steady speed that you can listen to the radio, nice growl when you put your foot in it. I love the note on the CJ when it runs about 3000 RPM on the highway.

As far as restrictions go......cops can kiss my ass! haha But the MagnaFlow has crossed through my mind but what kind of price ranges and do they have different types like Flowmasters have series???

Take a look at the hooker aero chamber mufflers. I have them on my x with super comp headers, and 2 1/2" pipe. They're quiest when at idle, but bark like a big dog when on the gas.

Hey BREK....i've had another guy tell me about them......about how much you think they'd run for 2 1/2" in and out???

If I recall correctly I believe summit or jegs sells them for around the $70 ea range.
