Improved Performance. Providing more torque and horsepower for moving your 2000-2006 TJ Wrangler over the trail or out of a sticky situations, the MBRP Black Series Cat-Back Exhaust is an elegantly straight forward single side exit exhaust system. Growling fiercely during acceleration, it settles into a mellow, rich rumble when you're cruising or driving at a fairly steady speed. Besides a welcome boost in horsepower and torque, the MBRP Black Series often produces +1-2 mpg additional fuel economy, depending on your Wrangler's exact configuration. The large black tip looks strong but stealthy, giving a unique look to your Jeep, too.

Bolt-On, Tough. The MBRP Black Series Cat-Back Exhaust is made with a bolt-on setup that doesn't need drilling or modification to install, and comes with all necessary hardware. The system features aluminized steel construction with 2.5-inch tubing and a 3.5-inch tip, all black coated for appearance and additional corrosion proofing. All parts are laser-cut for an easy, exact fit, and the Cat-Back comes with a 3 year system warranty and a 1 year finish warranty (limited).

Application. The MBRP Black Series Cat-Back Exhaust is designed to fit 2000-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ models, excluding Unlimited.

Great sounding exhaust

Package came complete with all hardware, quality as expected. I installed it within 45 minutes, although I had a lift and power tools. It gives great exhaust note as well atleast 5 extra horses. Jeep drives great and I love the sound.

Nice exhaust

Very easy install , all the hangers (hardware) included. Wasn't impressed with the tone at first, their must be a break in period because after a couple of weeks the tone of the exhaust is great more than you would expect for a straight six cylinder very pleased. the gauge of pipe looks like it will last for years. install 2004 jeep LJ

MBRP exhaust

I purchased the exhaust exclusively to fit with my long arm suspension, since my long brackets rub on the OEM exhaust. I’m generally not a big fan of exhaust noise, but this exhaust actually sounds decent.

2000 TJ

This provides great sound to my 2000 Jeep. It did not fully match up with my resonator, so I did have to cut and buy a few extra pipe endings.

Love the sound great buy!

Was a nice and quick bolt on application.. Hardest part and that wasn't even hard, was dropping the skid plate for easier access. Love the low ruble that even a 6cyl can produce.. Totally happy overall.

Sounds good

If your looking for a little more noise, this is the one. It’s not too expensive and should be easy to install. It’s got a nice low tone and isn’t overwhelming, but you definitely know it’s there. My muffler bolts/nuts at the flange seemed to be welded on, so I had a shop install in under an hour. This is actually the second jeep I’ve had this cat back on and Im happy with it.
