44, 40, and 10. The 40 may be your best bet, I don't think it's overly loud but it does sound good. 44 is pretty aggressive and the 10 will try and rip your eardrums out
I want it to be MEAN, LOUD, and like a BEAR. So the 44 is out haha, 10 or 40... we shall see.

44s are louder than 40s. You're gonna want a 10. YouTube "jeep Cherokee super 10"

It's true, you won't be as loud with the straight 6 compared to a v8, but I still stand by my suggestion of the spintech 9000.

gotta question, i am looking into getting a super 44 for my jeep, the 50 series isnt cutting it, but my dad thinks its not a good idea because he thinks i will have back pressure issues being that its a single chamber muffler not a dual chamber. anyone had any problems with this?

How will a new exhaust system affect my MPGs?

It depends on which way you want to go. For me, going headers and straight pipe was the best thing I've done for MPGs. It came with the price of being the loudest vehicle in town though. I see that as more of an achievement though

I've been told back pressure is a myth. I have a glasspack and my xj ****s and gets a little more now. Depends if you want torque or hp.

Your converter gives back pressure as well. MagnaFlow's are straight through and offer no issues with back pressure.

You have your series and chambers mixed up.

10's are 1 chamber
40's, 44's, etc are 2 chamber
50's and 70's are 3 chamber
