Reviews for Quadratec Competition Cat Back Exhaust System by MagnaFlow for 00-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ with 2.5/4.0L
I have this exhaust system Cat back for a few years now and it has performed flawlessly. Gives you a little bit more throaty exhaust sound than your regular exhaust, but not to crazy. A good bang for your buck. I would recommend this product. Thinking about adding the header to finish it up.
I have had the exhaust on my TJ for a couple of months. It was easy to install and sounds good. It is only slightly louder than stock and has no drone. I bought a new Wrangler in 2004 and installed a Banks Monster exhaust on it. This exhaust really reminds me of it, the muffler is almost identical. If you’re looking for a cat-back for your TJ or just need to replace the old one, look no further.
Pay close attention to the warning under installation notes "Will not fit 2000 Wrangler with Slip Fit Catalytic Converter". Evidently pre-January 2000 TJ's have a slip fit Catalytic Converter and post January 2000 models have flanges. Mine must be pre-January 2000 - no flange. I am going to see if I can have a flange welded to my cat by a local muffler shop so I can install the system. Also, I checked several other cat-back systems with flanges and many of the others don't have the warning. If you have a 2000 (or aftermarket exhaust) crawl underneath and check before ordering.
I've had this installed for a few years now, no complaints about quality or durability.
The sound is great, nice mellow tone louder than factory, but not obnoxious.
Zero clearance issues with factory control arms on a 2.5" lift
Bought this cat back exhaust & paired it with a matching catalytic converter. The sound is real good with great throttle response. Way to go Quadratec!!!
Like other have said, the worst part is getting the old one out. Installing this was simple. You will need to get supply the nuts for the flange. Not sure why they aren't included. Also, WD40 on the rubber hangers makes slipping them on and off easy.
I did put stands under the trans case and tranny so I could pull the skid plate. I know I could have just lowered it but getting it off isn't that hard and made moving around much easier. Especially when it came to grinding off the old studs.
good exhaust for the money
I really like this system. Sounds good. I had a muffler shop put it on for me but easy system hookup.
This was a great purchase and at a great price. We really love the SS look, the high quality of Magnaflow and the great new exhaust tone.
sounds good !
