Jeep JL Wrangler Muffler Removal and Dynomax Tail Pipe Installation with SOUND CLIPS

I got to meet you at the Jeep Bash and told you how much your videos have helped me preparing for the arrival of my new JLURXR. This video just adds to that. I wasn’t sure where to go with the exhaust mods but thanks to you, I have a Dynomax on order. Keep up the awesome videos. Thanks again.

[@wayalife]

Awesome! Pleasure to meet you at Jeep Bash 👍

[@TimR.VetGolf]

Eddy, when I first saw this video, I was like...yes! But, I was a little bit hesitant also because I didn't want that ricey sound either. Videos can be deceiving sometimes...but, I went ahead and ordered it. I've had in sitting in my garage for a couple of days. Finely got around to installing it today and I love it!! My wife was like..."don't you need a muffler?" I was like..."well, you don't really NEEEED it." LOL She heard me coming back from my test drive and she had a smile on her face. She's like..."THAT sounds good!" LOL Thanks for doing what you do, Eddy.

Hello again !! I wanted to give you a update . I bought the muffler delete for my Jeep JL 2.0 and it's nice, but the only complaint I have is on cold starts. Being that the car revs high at first it is a little to load. Especially if you go to work early in the morning and you have neighbors lol . Besides that it does have a good sound. Thanks Wayalife for getting back to me it does fit a 2.0 .

[@cameronminatel4659]

I added the dynomax elimination pipe and while it didn’t drone too bad, it sounded too loud and like a “Wana be sports car” but I liked the look and clearance it gave so I had a local muffler shop add a flowmaster 40 series directly after the factory resonator and now it sounds perfect! I didn’t want to delete the resonator like all the rock crawler exhausts do so this custom set up is perfect and cheaper.

[@wayalife]

LOL!! I totally hear ya. Great idea on the Flowmaster 40. Back on our old 2012 JK, we tested out a few different kits and ended up settling on a Dynomax Quiet Crawler kit and it really helped things out. May have to give what you did a try.

[@brianpatrickcork4513]

UPDATE: The unit was back ordered EVERYWHERE, but finally arrived this morning. Eddy makes EVERYTHING look easy. Having a lift is a huge advantage (and, I continue to envy Eddy and Cindy). But, so does all weather carpet in the garage for lots of on the back sliding and maneuvering.

[@LiveByItHD]

I tried Dynomax and Pypes on my JK's and was not happy at all. On our 2016 Hard Rock JK Pypes ruined my exhaust valves and had a very high drone on upshifts climbing the mountains on a 6,600 mile trip to Moab and Colorado. So we looked all over and read data reports on a variety of exhausts used by Jeepers. We tried the Borla Rock Climber and it was instant love, right back pressure, right sound with an amazing amount of clearance so we upgraded all 3 Jeeps the Borla Rock Climber exhaust. LOVE THEM TO DEATH :)

[@wayalife]

To be clear, this is NOT a JK. On a JK with a 3.6L, I couldn't agree with you more - been there, done that. That being said, I have not seen or felt the kind of issues that I had with my JK and at about $90, I thought it was worth the try and I'm glad that I did.

[@LiveByItHD]

I would imagine the JL motor is similar with an updated transmission. Seems it would shift more when loaded for trips. Just an observation to help.

[@wayalife]

Oh no, I understand what you're saying, trust me. However, the all new 8-speed transmission is probably the BIGGEST difference between the 2 Jeeps. You really need to drive one before imagining how it would do.

[@LOGANNICHOLE]

Thanks for this. Helped me with the install. Pretty easy to do and sounds great. Not too loud and not too ricey.

hmm. I wonder what that wound sound like on my 2.0 JL. The problem with my 2.0 is that it is so quiet off road that I cant tell what the engine is doing unless I look at the RPM. But I still want to be able to hear my premium stereo going down the highway. But then again my 37 inch mud terrain coopers are not helping that either.

[@wayalife]

I think a lot of what you're not hearing is because the 2.0L is a semi-hybrid, as in, it runs off the battery until you get going. At about $90 and 10 minutes to install, I'd say it'd be worth the test.

GREAT video as always! Perhaps a dumb question, but but does a muffler delete adversely affect emissions testing? Would hate to purchase and install a kit, only to fail my next smog inspection. Also curious if there was any noticeable affect (positive or negative) on engine performance. Appreciate any feedback and happy Jeepin'.

[@wayalife]

It shouldn't but if you live in a state with strict emissions laws, it might prevent you from passing if only because the system has been altered. Also, you will never see any measurable engine performance gains by just removing a muffler.

First of all ,Thank you for your informative videos. I also like the oem muffler sound on my Jeep JL.

Ok I pulled my exhaust off and new pipe coming in tomorrow. Wow it gets really hot down there with no muffler. It's pretty mellow at idle but it's pretty loud when going over 2500rpm . Did you end up keeping it that way or did you add a muffler?

[@wayalife]

We kept it this way but yes, it is loud and can be annoying at times. A small price to pay for the ground clearance.

[@markcaruana2697]

@@wayalife ok installed the pipe today and it makes a huge difference, not too loud at all and I think it's less raspy and a touch deeper tone. I love it. On another note did you install a cold air intake? I'm thinking of getting the airaid one any input would be great. I love your channel btw.

I know this is kinda an old video but how did u like the muffler delete long term?? Did it get annoying to loud?? Or was it not bad?

[@wayalife]

Honestly, it's annoying.

@@wayalife lol thanks for saving me the trouble then. I'll keep running the dented trash can!

If you don't mind me asking, what fuel economy do you get now? I know 513 is the best for your tire size as your 7 and 8th gears would go away without regearing. I'm guessing potentially better than if you didn't regear but had bigger tires?

[@wayalife]

Actually, with 5.13 gears, we're running at about 400 rpm HIGHER now or at least, on the highway and have seen a DECREASE in mpg because of it. 5.13's help you to regain power but if mpg is a concern of yours, 4.88 might be a better choice with 37's. I talk about it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5O4qYuDZax2qJY

[@valentinochen9484]

Ok, got a question here. Instead of replacing it with the tailpipe, why not just leave it open with no muffler? I’m sure it’ll pretty much sound the same, giving you more clearance

[@wayalife]

A friend of mine has done that and honestly, you can hear a difference. At least, I can and I prefer what this pipe does.

[@kirkyoung6962]

Question without running the muffler don’t to stand a chance of warping a valve?

[@wayalife]

There's still a resonator installed. Just the muffler was removed.

[@LarryRichelli]

I am wondering if two years later have you kept it on or changed your exhaust?

[@wayalife]

Still have it :)

[@stevesontag552]

Do you know if it affects the warranty? Great videos.

[@wayalife]

Only if whatever you're trying to have warrantied is caused by this mod. Can't see what that might be though.

[@terryxia2188]

So I removed my muffler without adding anything on, and there’s quite a large drone... would buying this pipe make a huge difference? I’m not too sure what the specific reason there is to buying a pipe rather than only taking off the muffler and leaving it at that?

[@wayalife]

Not a huge difference but there is a difference for sure. I tested it out both ways and you can tell. Also, I didn't like how the exhaust was just blowing on the bottom of the tub.
