dont waste your money on stuff like that,there is not hp gian through them,i know i have them all,air intake throttle body spacer etc,if i had to do it over again i would just go to rustys off-road and buy his kit,alot cheaper and same effect.or just but a k&n and put it in your stock air box,same hp gain.

are u talking about rustys?if u are they are quality parts.some of his lifts are junk but the air tube and tbs is good.some people have had good luck at rustys and some have not,but the spacer and air tube seem to be a better way to go,half the price and same effect.i noticed a little gain through my bolt on's,the one that really stood out was when i had a custom 2 1/2 inch magnaflow exhaust put on,it has very little back pressure and sounds pretty decent.do u have a 4 or 6 cyl?

i wouldent put a glasspack on it,i dont like dynomax at all,i think they are junk.i went with magnaflow because everyone else i know with a tj went banks or flowmaster and magnaflow was a new breed of cat.flowmaster is a good choice if u pick the right series,i dont really know which one sounds mean,but i know that banks products arent any better than dynomax,their header cracks faster than a stock one,i know the have the huge warrenty on it but who wants to change it all the time,a cheap ebay manifold does the same job.i would go with a cat-back exhaust,and the rustys air intake kit.see what kinda improvement u will feel,rustys will only cost u 125 for the air tube,filter,and tbs.i would get the k&n not thoes trueflow filters.but start with an exhaust,and then when u have the money and time get the others,put them on and then after the newness wears off put the stock airbox back on and im telling you you wont notice any differnce.get a bigger throttle body,the 62mm,and a panel filter for your box.thats what i would try considering i have what u are asking about and thats what i would have done differnt.
you also have to account,we have wranglers,not mustangs,you will never have neck breaking horse power,our motors have torque,and thats what we need,if u really wanna fast one i would save up for a supercharger or a turbo,or a motor swap all togeather.have u lifted it yet?what kinda tires are u running,size?

just dont get in a hurry to lift your rig,i mean dont buy those junk buget boosts u will see and hear about,they are a cheap way to raise it a little.i put them on top of a lift kit to get more clearence and made it ride like a lumber wagon.stay clear of them,do it the right way and get a real lift kit,get the ome 2 1/2 hd spring kit,it will come out to 3 inches total and will clear 33' tires with no problems at all,and its a top of the line lift.no reason to try to get more performance now out of your jeep,its stock,its as fast and has more power it will ever have till the lift and tires come,then u will want to start looking into aftermarket parts.

if u have 3.07 gears and u put 33' on it u will most likely be downshifting on the highway when u come upon a hill,if u have 3.73 u should be ok,if it was me i would end up putting 4.10s in it for piece of mind and u wouldent have to downshift.any higher and u would be running high rpm's and burning more fuel.u should go to the jeep dealership close to where u live and give them your vin # and hve them print out what all u have,tranny model,axels,axel ratios,etc,so u know exactly what u have.if its a plane jane wrangler sport,it prolly has 30f 35r with 3.07 gears,but u never know

No offence to you but It sounds as though you need to do some research. You are asking about the "SOUNDS" of exhaust? You should be more concered with the quality and performace gains. Most of what you are asking can be found in JP mag and on the net. Or by reading the other threads on this site that already answer most of what you need.
