Default exhaust

Looking to buy a cat back performance exhaust but don't want to buy from the states since we have a weak dollar. Any good places

What model 2000 Jeep are you?
Cat back will give little if any performance upgrade. Noise only!
What are you looking for?

My MagnaFlow Performance - Black Series - Axle Back was delivered yesterday, hope to install it this week on my new 2015 Rubi. This is my second one, had the first on the 2011 Sahara, but it was traded in on the new Rubi. Nice rumble but not overwhelming. Unfortunately, it is one of the most expensive ones on the market, made even more so by our dollars crapout, but even with the added exchange, nobody north of the border could touch the price. Dealt with Quadratec, usually they deliver (with free shipping on anything over $75US) within a week (Stateside, don't know about cross border times as I have a mailing address there.) this occasion, the order (muffler only) was backorder for just short of a month!

Got it installed last weekend. Bloodly, god awful nightmare. Installation was idiot-proof but trying to extract the hanger rods from the rubber mounts was horrific. Thought I learned all the tricks and tips from swapping out the one on the 2011 but none of them worked. After an hour of trying to extract the one behind the tail pipe, I finally gave up and broke out the grinder. I think because the 2015 Rubi was only 6 months old, the rubber figure 8 (that the rods mount into) had not had time to stretch. I didn't put the muffler on the 2011 until it was two years old.
But she's on and she sounds sweet, for some reason it doesn't sound near as loud as the one on the 2011 Sahara, weather it's because of the different configuration of the exhaust on the 2015's 3.6L as opposed to the 3.8L. Not really sure. Didn't realize how much a difference seeing those dualies out the back changes the look from the rear.
Anywho, the new wiring harnesses arrived to convert the half doors to from the 2011 wiring harness
to the new ones used in the 2015's so this weekends mission is to get them installed and the full doors swapped out.
