I run Kooks headers, no cats, and Solo Performance cat back....very nice sound.

Kooks/Borla is very loud....but very awesome too!

I actually had SW 1 7/8 with high flow cats - magnaflow muffler and stock rear resonators and it sounded beastly...but also had QTP cutouts when I wanted it louder.

I've ran B&B and Mopar with my headers.

B&B is a deeper tone, drones more and not nearly as loud heavy throttle as the Mopar (Corsa).

I've also driven a Borla S with headers......same, deeper tone and drones like a SOB. Forget talking to people sitting in the back seat. LOL

Nailed it.. its so bad I can't even have a conversation.. It has its moments, I like that I can make people crap themselves by gunning it but sadly it gets old lol.

I'm running the Corsa w/ catted Kooks. It's decently loud at regular throttle, but really opens up when you mash the giggle pedal. Very minimal drone, from my experience. Overall, it sounds great all the time.

I can't compare it to other Jeep setups, but compared to my TBSS, it's street manners are a LOT better. The TBSS has stock cast LS2 manifolds, but a full 3" exhaust w/ only a Magnaflow 12641 (6" round, 24" long) muffler.

Don't get me wrong, the TBSS sounds amazing: Idle, cruising, WOT, etc. At ~2k rpms, though, the interior drone is off the charts. I didn't mind it at first, but I've been looking for a resonator more recently...LOL.

Has anybody added J-pipes (Helmholtz Resonator) similar to the Solo exhaust? I did on my 2004 GC as the aftermarket exhaust had a terrible drone right at 2000 rpm. It makes a difference.
