BANKS POWER

[Joopin]

OMG!!!!!! lets see yours!

Does anyone have this exhaust? It looks pretty good I think, but I don't wanna pay 400 bucks for a header that sucks. My WHOLE exhaust is shot, it's hangin on for dear life, and I am probably breathing in the fumes.

Anyway, I want to do this once and Banks is my first choice. Anyone have any reviews? Or perhaps a similar header/exhaust that is stainless steel, maybe even cheaper?!?!

Thanks for any input

Educate me here.
What is the point of putting a header on there if you are in a state where it is illegal to remove the catalytic converter. Can you still get some hp gains out of it?
Is $400 just for the headers or a complete system? If that is complete then it's dirt cheap.

I have a banks cat, works great, install was a breeze, all stainless, mandrel bent, 2 1/2" pipe. Good stuff. I'm very happy with it, soon i'm going change my headers to banks ones as well.

Well I read that if you get a performance cat then no hp is lost. The header ONLY is 400 bucks which sucks but my manifold is cracked and if I don't get a coated header, the alternative (uncoated) will crack as well during water crossings or getting wet. So I just want this header and down pipe (80) to be the last ones I ever buy. The rest I could just buy stainless steel tubing and make myself. So the whole exhaust will be just over 500 I'm guessing.

LGR, you have just the cat? or a cat-back...
