Construction & Design:
The Ripp catback exhaust system is crafted from T-304 stainless steel, known for its exceptional resistance to rust and corrosion, even under harsh environmental conditions such as mud, water, and road salt. This material choice ensures the system remains durable and visually appealing over time.
The muffler features a glass-filled, large chamber design that balances exhaust velocity and sound quality. This engineering approach allows the exhaust to flow freely, reducing backpressure and improving engine efficiency while delivering a refined, aggressive exhaust note that enhances the driving experience without excessive noise.
Additionally, the system’s high-clearance design is tailored to the Wrangler JK’s off-road capabilities, minimizing the risk of hang-ups on rocks, logs, or other trail obstacles.
Performance & Sound
The Ripp catback exhaust system provides a noticeable performance boost, adding approximately 10 to 15 horsepower at the rear wheels. These gains translate into improved throttle response and enhanced driving dynamics, especially beneficial for both naturally aspirated and forced induction Wrangler JK models.
Sound-wise, the system produces a deep, low rumble that complements the Jeep’s rugged character. Unlike many aftermarket exhausts that generate high-pitched or droning noises, the Ripp system maintains a balanced tone free from annoying buzz or “racer” sound, making it suitable for daily driving and spirited off-road excursions alike.
Note: Horsepower gains are measured at the rear wheels and may vary depending on tire size, gear ratios, and other vehicle-specific factors. Ripp advises customers to understand the differences between dyno measurement methods when comparing power figures.
Installation & Fitment:
The Ripp catback exhaust kit is designed for a direct bolt-on installation on all 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK models. No cutting, welding, or major modifications are necessary, allowing for a straightforward upgrade that can be completed with basic hand tools.
The system’s high-clearance design ensures compatibility with off-road setups and factory suspension components, preserving ground clearance and minimizing interference with other vehicle parts.
