    Hey guys! I'm finally in the jeep family! I just got a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited 4x4 with the 5.7L hemi V8. I am looking to upgrade the exhaust, I want it to rumble at start up and while I'm sitting at a stop light and I want it to roar when I accelerate but I don't want it to have that whiny, my car has asthma sound. Any specific models of exhaust systems I should get??

    Welcome! Borla sounds really good on the 5.7. Ive heard good things about the Dynomax VT series mufflers too. That being said, I think you have a resonator inline before (or after?) the muffler. You could start with removing that, and see if it adds the rumble you are looking for first.

    MBRP will do what your looking for too. Most of our customers say they are too loud!

    Yeah I have been looking at some MBRP reviews and they seem pretty legit so far and can work with my budget
