Anyone thought about dual exhaust on new Gladiator? Magna Flow or Flowmaster?

Installed the crawler version. Very happy with how it sounds.
Hey, can you post some pics of the routing of your Magnaflow Crawler Series? I destroyed my stock muffler wheeling this past Saturday, need something that is for sure out of the way, until I get some skids.

The Gladiator has 2 mufflers and 1 resonator, right?

Just eliminating all that crap and going to a full free-flowing Magnaflow system will pick up power. Just make sure you can handle the Nissan 370Z noise, because that's exactly what the Pentastar sounds like with exhaust.
I feel like the exhaust note of the vq engine is beautiful. I doubt it sounds like it though

On my ‘76 CJ 7 I had the pipe exit just in front of the rear pass. side tire. Could that help the 3.6 sound. It worked great for the straight 6. I liked the look also. Don’t know if that’s legal or what the routing on the gladiator kooks like.

I've been considering dual pipes out the back, custom setup though I just want it for the look imdimt want any additional sound. Exhausts typically sound like arse on anything but a V8 IMO.

Use the Gibson exhaust, trust me on this. The Gibson exhaust system is bad ass on the Gladiator
Two options on their website; single and dual split. If you can suffer through the unnecessary parts of these videos, there are some sound clips.

Single:


Dual:

i'm not a fan of aftermarket exhaust systems on Jeeps but if you're looking for a hint more sound, why not just cut off that resonator on the end ?

Has anyone cut off the resonator???

It's likely going to get smashed off roading so it's damage will be an "indicator" of how hard your Gladiator's rear end came down.

I'm thinking about doing that - cutting it off where it turns downwards right around the shield next to the spare tire (see pic)...

I had a 2011 Wrangler and installed a Flo-Master 60 series on it. I was told that it was designed for the V6 engines. It had a good deep sound and no resonance. I liked it but that was just my thought. Have a goodun!!!

Did you ever cut the resonator off? How does it sound?
