My bad I guess im looking at an old magazine try part #555-30671 that should be the 2-1/2" kit, and its all prebent tubbing so no bending involved. The only reason why I got to pay a muffler shop is cuz I have no welder and I want that exhaust up there secure 100%
I paid 203 shipped for my 2.5" free flow cat , 2.5" magnaflow muffler and 2.5" mandrel bent tailpipe from performance curve ( Mudfrog on Cherokeeforum )

The kit comes with so much tubing you can probably do 2 xj if you can get a xj buddy to split the bill! It also servs good to make a custom CAI! Thats why I think that kit is worth $200

I would rant but if his Xj is just a trail rig that does not get driven on the road or his location does not require emissions. He does not need to run a cat. Besides its just one less thing for a meth addict to steal.

I got the Thunderbolt cat. #410250
and Mangaflow Muffler # 10416
Pics and Videos Below
( keep in mind the exhaust was only on the Jeep for 5 minutes before I shot the videos I drove about a mile from the shop to where I shot the location, Now that is has been on for about a month it is a little deeper I have to get another video at a local OHV area since its 35 miles from home and the exhuast is warmed up by time i get there )

I've ran 3 tanks through the jeep sofar and I have noticed a slight gain
2 of the tanks were all city driving and I gained 30 miles more driving before the fuel light kicks on so with basic math thats a 1.5 MPG on those tanks of gas and on the third tank there was a mix of city and hiway and that one had 45 more miles on the tank so thats a 2.4mpg gain

Why isn't this a sticky?
I was about to order a super 44 exhaust from performance curve until I saw how much shipping was going to be out to the middle of the pacific... oh well, maybe I can find a decent exhaust shop on this island to fab up a custom setup. Who knows...

Hey mate, new member here from Australia, looked at buying a 95 Cherokee today but has a cracked header. As I don't know much on this, is it a costly thing to fix and will it cause damage if I was to still drive it? Any help would really be appreciated
