    The fellow that installed my new muffler yesterday suggested trying it with the resonator still in place and then deleting the resonator if I wanted it louder. I just had it do both while it was on the lift. If you are worried about drone then you might do it in steps. The stock muffler is huge. You will save the weight of a kid by replacing it with a Flowmaster like I did or a similar smaller muffler.

    As Huey said I will be doing a straight pipe from muffler, I dont have kids or a family to cart around so the noise I want to hear is the HEMI.. I came from the import world starting back in 98, before F&F, and all my exhausts have been loud. I will be exploring the option of headers once I have the $$$.. 07JeepXK and I were discussing possible cam options to..

    Just had a chance to listen to the video... that sounds pretty good, i like it.

    When you say "you can hear when MDS comes on"... how so? What does it sound like?

    And im going to hear that in person on the 11th right? A good exhaust may make some obstacles "look" better just by having the big 5.7L sound as im hitting the gas..... lol might give me a reason to drop my muffler on a rock by "accident" hahaha

    lol it was actually hard to hear it in that video. Maybe someday when I have my pickup truck again and the XK isn't the family hauler for long trips.

    Its the 50 series. And yes as of right now Ill be attending the trip on the 11th. When the MDS comes on it sounds like its going into another gear, very low drone but quiet, you wont hear it unless you are listening for it. Its pretty funny actually.. When Im WOT people look at me 2 ways, crazy and what does he got under that hood?!?! HAHA

    My only worry for the 11th is I may not have $$ or time for belly skid which concerns me after watching your videos, may have to stick to the lighter stuff with my rig..

    There's a few different "50 series".... there's the 50 Series Big Block, Super 50 Series, 50 Series Delta Flow and 50 Series HD, 50 series 4x8, 50 series 3x10..... Do you know which PN you got?

    You'll be alright without the bellyskid. My friend doesn't have it on his WK yet either and has been there the past 3 times with me. I'll let you know what trails to avoid.
