I'm looking at the Rusty's w/ Flowmaster, the Dynomax Super Turbo & any others in the price range. So far I like the Rusty's best, since it is 2.5" diameter. I don't *need* that much flow right now but it leaves me room to grow if I cam the jeep some day.
Any others I'm missing?

I personally like no tailpipe, o I have a maggy 14" 4x9 oval with a turndown.
 
!
Have any experience to share with them? Looks like well made stuff + super good price. I'll probably order from them soon, unless somebody tells me something awful..
 
Yoss if I'm remembering correctly you have some fab skill, no?

Build it yourself, to your tailoring. I bought all my stuff from Performance Curve. Magnaflow high-flow cat, Magnaflow muffler, and PC mandrel bent tailpipe. Threw ina few hangers, and welded it all together. Oh, also ditched traditional clamps and went with some turbo v-band clamps. WAY easier to work with if you ever want to take it back apart.

Sounds great, and was way less than 300 bones.
 
I just bought an exhaust from performance curve. Got a hi flow cat, mandrel bent pipe, clamps and Magna flow exhaust shipped to my door for $189. Havent installed yet, but everything show up quickly and I have never heard anything bad about them, and I looked them up on some other boards just to make sure.
 
I got a dynamax cat back for 75 after rebate, been on two jeeps three years AMD no rust, sounds fine
 
Slightly OT, but what about replacing the Downpipe? I have APN Headers, would there be any improvement using a 2.5" downpipe?
Do you have any mods? Such as injectors, bored TB, cowl intake etc? If so a custom, mandrel-bent downpipe would be beneficial for sure as long as you have a better than stock exhaust as well.
 
at stock height, you don't want an up-sized downpipe. The u-joint will hit it. The crimp in the factory downpipe is there to clear the front driveline. Ask me how I know.
