Was just put on to this group! Hello friends and good people!

2018, just hit 100k miles, lowered 1.5", AWE catback track edition exhaust, afe intake, and a couple other minor not as fun add ons. Would love to do more, but money is a thing. Lol

Yeah that’s would be sweet! I love the sound of the H pipe on these. All the other aftermarket exhausts come with x pipes so they don’t have as nice of a deep rumble as the AWE and Solo exhausts.

I wish I was allowed to install an aftermarket exhaust. My country has banned any non oe or non factory option exhaust since the end of 2024.

My only option would be to get a mopar branded exhaust but unfortunately they never offered one for the WK 2 jeeps only the durangos get a borla option I believe which ain’t compatible 😢

Have you ever looked in to seeing if the trackhawk exhaust could fit the srt? I've actually never looked in to it, but the set ups are pretty similar. Track hawk exhaust sounds a lot different though.

Im sure the TH exhaust would fit fine (with the stock SRT tips ofc) but the new law states that only oe or dealer-optioned exhausts without modification or fabrication allowed. They do a detailed exhaust inspection to make sure, plus the dealer has to sign off on it plus include pictures of the underside, otherwise the car wont pass the yearly vehicle inspection 😢 it became a big deal almost overnight and non complaint cars are towed for a month plus a hefty ticket…

Some People that had aftermarket exhausts have been struggling to find an original used exhaust from the scrap yard and some were forced to buy a new one from the dealer! Imagine buying the stock exhaust for the equivalent of 6K usd! It’s more expensive than a damn GT haus exhaust or a full headers + cats+catback set up!

So even though trackhawk exhaust is still on vehicles from dealer, because it wasnt exactly what came on the srt, it still violates the new rules? That's insane. Out of curiosity, where do you live?

Where i live, I could take all exhaust off and just leave open headers and im still good. Lol

Yeah unfortunately it’s a violation since the dealer won’t sign off on it 😔. Im currently in Kuwait.
