I've been looking around on the forum for a exhaust systems for the jeep prettty much for the sound right now. And alot of people been going with the borla S and corsa etc.... but they asking for way to much and alot of them u really dont gain that much power for how much it cost. So I just took my resonators off and wow it was pretty much wat i was looking for. Alot of people say theres drone in the cab when u take them off but all it seem to me is that its just a louder exhaust... its Sounds real mean... That same night i took them i went playing around with a mustang,rsx,wrx, and a pontiac GTPand u shoud know who won..lol but friday im going to get them cut out right know i look like a normal jeep for the back no pipes..lol true sleeper now. It pretty much drive like normal if anything its seems like i gained some as well. So if any of yall was wanted to do a cheap mod there u go... it really sounds like a monster when u get on it thats how it should of been out the factory....

well i was going to do a vidoe but im not going to even lie its hard to tell the difference. Alot of people told my exhaust sounds diferent from a stock SRT8 so it might just be my Jeep but It sounds better now. If u have looked at any of the youtube videos u can say the same they all just sound the same unless u have cutouts the all sound the same to me on youtube. So wat u can do is do it urself its no hard at all it took me just 10 min to take the off. All it is just a lil bolt and clap on the front of them. Just test it out for a day or two and if u dont like it put them back on its that easy..... but trust me u will like it. I've been throught two full tanks of gas in 3 days just playing around.... my kids love it but not some much the wife she says she can hear me coming a light bit before i hit the driveway at idling speeds. She says the only thing she dont like is when i drive off when shes in it(not flooring it but driving normal) its to loud for her she dont like loud cars .... I get a lot of head turners but they might think its just a normal 5.7 cuz i dont have the rear pipes on them right now but friday the well be up there. I dont mine to go on and on and on but noe has really put no real info about them out htere so i thought i would....lol

It would seem that some vendor might make a kit (resonator delete) to replace the existing system but when time to take it to the dealer put the orignals back on.... I can see some warranty hassles taking in the jeep without the resonators......I have looked around and have not found any.......
