GIBSONJeep Wrangler 07-17 Cat-Back Dual Split Exhaust System Black

Just installed this exhaust and took a 2 hour road trip through the mountains. Awesome look and sound. Here are a couple of points that I need to make. 1. It is loud - you have a Jeep and now it will sound like one. Those folks out there who complain about a constant drone when driving need to go through some mud or something and get their Jeep dirty every once in a while. It's a road tractor, not a mall hauler. 2. Some folks have complained that they lose low end torque after installing this exhaust. I called Gipson before isntalling to get the low-down on this issue. They told me that those folks had not read the instructions. Be sure to unhook your negative battery cable for at least 30 minutes when installing, then start the Jeep after the install and let it idle until it gets full warmed up (10-15 minutes). That will let the computer relearn the exhaust system.

This is an awesome product, I love it. The sound is great and I also achieved more power on my JEEP.Installing is a breeze but do plan on spending at least an hour on it, especially when it comes to removing the old exhaust from the rubber holders.I am beyond happy with this purchase.Watch the video that I am attaching.

This is the second Gibson dual exhaust I have purchased. The first one was for my 2010 Wrangler JKU and I knew as soon as I picked up my 2015 JKU that this was going to be the exhaust for it. I will admit, it is a touch "ricey" but you cannot expect much more from a V6 than what you get from this exhaust. It does a great job of making the sound as throaty as possible and I could not be happier with it. The icing on the cake for me is the fact that it comes in ceramic black which is perfect for my blacked-out JKU. When you look at the Jeep from the back this thing really sets it apart from anything in the parking lot. I do not notice any drone at any speed and I am very happy with the sound it makes. I research everything and this was no exception. Even though I knew I was going to get this I still went through the effort of comparing reviews for this system versus other manufacturers like MBRP, Rugged Ridge, and Magnaflow before landing on a decision to stick with the Gibson. I like the distance between the pipes and sound is perfect. I got an amazing deal on this exhaust since I waited for one to come up for sale on Amazon Warehouse Deals. I saved over a Benji and this was brand new in box and perfect in every way.

Just be prepared for a definite change in performance, of your vehicle. Engine idle speed will change and all of your shifting points for an automatic transmission will change. It makes no difference if you disconnect the battery. After a day of driving your computer will make its own changes. 40 miles after the battery was disconnected the setup changed again. On cold mornings it acts much differently then warm mornings.The best part is, every time I get into my jeep I have to learn how it wants me to drive it. It never gets bored driving my Jeep.I have not seen any improvement in gas milage, maybe because I am always stepping into the gas pedal to hear the mean sound that my vehicle gives off with this muffler installed. The torque seems much better off the line and I now enjoy pulling my trailer.

Start up sound is moderate, not to loud. Acceleration is pretty moderate too, once you really get on it you will open it up a bit. Overall the sound is very nice, not to loud but it can be. Mine has a bit of a rattle right now at the higher RPMS, but I'm pretty sure that's just because it's a brand new exhaust with about 5 miles on it. I'll update if it isn't!INSTALLATION PROCESS: The rubber mount on the left side (while looking at back) is the easiest one to get, it's also the one I suggest getting first. Mainly because the mid pipe is connected right beside where this mount is, and if you are doing this by yourself you'll want the help from that to keep it steady. The rubber mount to the right side (while looking at back) is the worst. I would suggest putting the jeep on roll up's just so you can get better leverage. It's a very tight space and you will need a whole bunch of WD40 and leverage. Other than that, once you get it off, it takes about 5 minutes to install. I didn't disconnect the battery, as it really isn't necessary in this install.
