Why You Should Upgrade Your Jeep's Exhaust System Stat

As a Jeep owner, you probably take a lot of pride in your Grand Cherokee or Wrangler's appearance. No one can deny it. Jeeps are absolute powerhouses both on and off the road – they're able to turn heads no matter where you go. It's entirely understandable for even the most diehard car enthusiasts to zero in on cosmetic mods like lift kits and grill guards from time to time.

But as proud as you are with your Jeep's appearance, you may not be thinking enough about what's under your carriage. We're of course talking about your stock Jeep exhaust system and why it might be time to think about getting an aftermarket upgrade. Sure, your stock exhaust is probably working as intended – but is that really enough? (Pro tip: probably not.)

An aftermarket upgraded exhaust system can provide a ton of performance gains to your Jeep. We're talking about increased engine lifespan, more horsepower, better torque, enhanced sound and more. Do we have your attention now?

In this article, we're going to get into the nitty and gritty of why you need to replace your stock Jeep exhaust system and all the exhaust upgrade benefits that come with it.

Let's Talk Design: What's the Difference Between Stock & Performance Jeep Exhaust Systems?

Stock Jeep exhaust systems are constructed from less expensive, 400-series carbon steel components that get the job done but don't unlock all the potential you have hiding within that SRT engine. See, upgraded exhaust systems are all about "the flow." One of the benefits of aftermarket exhausts is an increased exhaust flow far above what your restrictive stock exhaust offers. That's because an upgraded exhaust system like the ones available from CORSA is designed with larger diameter piping that helps eliminate exhaust backpressure to allow your Jeep's engine to breathe easier.

Factory systems use smaller piping and crush bends that pinch the steel in their designs, restricting exhaust gas flow. We're not faulting Jeep for this – every automotive manufacturer does it to help keep manufacturing costs down and quiet exhaust noise. With enhanced flow, your engine will be under far less strain which amps up performance and helps engines last longer.

Extra Design Elements You Should Know

In addition to larger diameter piping, a performance exhaust for your Jeep Wrangler or Cherokee will consist of straighter layouts, lighter, less restrictive mufflers and mandrel bends. Rather than being pinched together, an upgraded exhaust system inserts a series of balls inside sections of the piping, so the bends remain curved rather than crushed when the piping is bent. Naturally, this method allows exhaust fumes to flow smoothly and swiftly to keep your exhaust flowing better than ever before for those sweet, sweet performance gains.

One last note about performance Jeep exhaust system design: most systems also feature improved, rust-resistant materials to enhance their durability far beyond what your stock system has to offer. All of our Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Grand Cherokee exhaust systems offer premium stainless steel construction for top-rated durability here at CORSA.

Exhaust Upgrade Benefits We Know You'll Love: Performance Gains

So, aside from engine longevity, what can all this free-flowing exhaust do for your Jeep? We've already alluded to the performance benefits of aftermarket exhausts, but let's talk about what that means. With more exhaust flow, you'll see exhaust upgrade benefits like increased horsepower, torque and fuel economy – especially at cruising speed. Unfortunately, a performance Jeep exhaust system won't transform your Grand Cherokee into something that can compete with a high-performance muscle car, but every performance gain is helpful in some way.

You might notice you'll be able to overtake cars more easily on the open road and will need to make fewer trips to the gas station, but where an upgraded Jeep exhaust system really shines is the torque increase. Jeeps were made for cruising off-road with speed and style – but sometimes a rugged terrain can put you to the test. An upgraded exhaust system will improve your Jeep's low-end torque so you can climb steep slopes and negotiate sand and mud with greater ease and strength. Additionally, low-end torque can also be useful when driving through busy cities and towns so you can rule the crowded city streets and the rugged wilderness.

Do You Crave Aggressive Sound? Upgraded Exhaust Systems Can Help

One of our favorite benefits of an upgraded Jeep exhaust system is the sound. Aftermarket exhaust kits are all about boosting the sound of your ride and bringing it to new levels. Manufacturers must meet certain noise restrictions and requirements to ensure their vehicles appeal to the broadest range of customers possible – but we're sure you wouldn't mind unlocking new head-turning, powerful sound.

With a performance Jeep Wrangler or Jeep Grand Cherokee exhaust, you'll get the throaty growl you deserve when you cruise down the open road. Not only will you (and your whole neighborhood) hear the difference, but when you're behind the wheel, you'll feel it more than ever before. It's enough to get anyone's blood pumping.

At CORSA, we don't just focus on loudness when it comes to our performance Jeep exhaust systems – we've perfected what we call "The Science of Sound" for the ultimate driver experience. Thanks to our patented RSC® (Reflective Sound Cancellation®) technology, you'll hear a deep, aggressive rumble under start-up and acceleration while having the benefit of a drone-free experience during cruise for the best ride you've had in your Jeep.

Protect Your Off-Roading Experiences: How a Performance Jeep Exhaust System Can Help

We've already touched on how a new exhaust for your Jeep Wrangler or Cherokee can help your off-roading experience with the addition of more low-end torque – but that's not all they can do. When you're powering through the mud, crawling up rocks or traversing sandy terrain, it can often lead to a bit of damage (even if you're extra careful). Unfortunately, the lower-hanging components of your stock Jeep exhaust system are right in the thick of it all. Our final benefit of an aftermarket exhaust is the higher clearance many offer. In these high-clearance versions, an aftermarket exhaust will tuck up your exhaust tips higher than traditional exits and relocate your muffler closer to the front of the kit. With a high-clearance upgraded exhaust system, you'll have free reign to take on the most aggressive off-road paths the world has to offer without worrying about taking any damage.
