Anyone thinking about upgrading the exhaust or do you think it's a waste of money.

Saw this on YouTube - TrailRecon. He has done some pretty cool mods for serious off-roaders. What do you think about the exhaust mod?
Exhaust part is at about the 14 minute mark.

The factory exhaust works pretty well given the environmental and cost constraints for a vehicle like this. But if money is no issue, then there are probably some small incremental benefits in sound, departure angle, materials quality, and performance. In addition, the process of customization has a joy all its own.

However, if resources are limited, then perhaps it is better to spend the $1,200 instead on gas to take it for a trip and create a nice memory.

I'd rather straight pipe it.

$1200 for what should really be $200 in parts value, is just excessive. There's nothing innovative or remarkable about these exhaust systems which have been out FOREVER.

I was thinking this same thing. When saw the YouTube I was thinking maybe $600 at the most. Your probably looking at $1500+ all in with installation.

If its strictly clearance you are looking for, you can look at the NYTOP muffler delete/exhaust dump. Not cheap by any means though...

Signed up for Magnaflow when video was released, but seeing the price will need to think it over...it realistically shouldn't be over 1k

Milltek has one coming too.

Tanabe/Revel has one in the works.
