I really like my Borla dual. I actually got it delivered for $400 from a dealership in Florida off Ebay years ago. They go for around $600 now. I would still go with it even with the 50% higher price now. I love the performance, look, and sound of it. They don't make it for the '06 yet. I would start calling them now and asking for it and you might be able to get one by summer. To get upgrades made for the early KJ's I made hundreds of phone calls to manufacturers. When I bought it back in July 2001, I planned to lift it, regear it, and supercharge it immediately. Wow, what a rude awakening. Never thought that for the first couple years there would be virtually nothing for it, and most of the manufacturers said they weren't even interested in ever making anything for it. That's when I hooked up with Terry from Profinish-Proglass. I'd seen his work such as the convertible 2 door Liberty at the 2003 SEMA show, and the supercharged hemi ram that Mario Andretti drove and signed the dash of on Trucks!. We decided to build the most powerful Jeep Liberty in the world. It put 252 hp and 301 ftlbs torque to the ground on a Superflow dyno. That's converts to about 270 hp and 325 ftlbs torque on a Dynojet dyno, which is what all the manufacturers use since they read higher. That's over 335 hp and 400 ftlbs torque at the crank. That's also without the ram-air. The ram-air gives it around 15% better economy at highway speeds, and a very noticeable power increase on the butt dyno. That motor actually lasted an entire year. Still playing with the idea of pulling it out of the garage and getting it built for a 20 hp per cylinder direct shot.
