Construction & Design

The Injen SES5003HT exhaust system is constructed from premium 304-grade stainless steel, known for its excellent corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability in harsh environments. Mandrel bending technology maintains a consistent tube diameter throughout the system, optimizing exhaust gas flow and minimizing restrictions for maximum performance gains.

Each flange is investment cast for precise fitment, and the entire system is fully TIG welded by hand at Injen’s Pomona, California facility. This meticulous craftsmanship ensures a robust, leak-free exhaust system built to withstand the rigors of both daily driving and off-road adventures.

The high tuck design not only improves ground clearance but also positions the exhaust outlet to reduce the risk of damage when navigating challenging terrain. The polished stainless steel tips add a stylish finishing touch that complements the Jeep’s aggressive and rugged aesthetic.
