That's what I was gonna do on the XJ. Thinking about straight pipe on the MJ cause I have historic tags. Much cheaper if I manage to break it...

Word of advice, if you do run straight pipes with no muffs, be sure the exhaust exits behind the cab somewhere other wise your ears will bleed. I had header dumps on my F100 that came just under the firewall and I had to wear ear plugs to drive longer then 15 min lol

Also if you want to remove any factory equipped stuff, I.E. muffler or cat or air pump or whatever emission control devices. You need to have it registered with Streetrod tags not historic. Historic is 20 years old or older with "as factory equipped" Streetrod is 25 and older and the only guideline is that it HAS to be modified. Headlights, tailights and iluminated rear tag thats it

i honestly wouldn't mind going without a muffler, (stupid laws.....) except at higher RPM it drones like crazy.....I know this cause I did it for a day. If I could get it as loud that with a muffler I would do it. At idle it sounded amazing. I'll probably redo it eventually after its not a DD


when I ran with no muffler the pipe stopped right after the rear o2 sensor.

But it's already registered, and there's no inspection. I didn't even have the truck there when I got the plates. I said I want historic tags, wrote down the info, and they gave them to me. I may switch to Streetrod tags in a couple years after it's lifted and old enough.

I would think the background check for being a police officer is a little more in depth than the one for Arby's, ijs...

So I am thinking 2.5 pipe, FM 40 or 44 and a high flow cat... thoughts?
I run a FM40 on my ZJ, I like the sound.....
Wish I could run a turndown after the muffler, sounds even better that way
