Removing Banks and installing stock set up

[BigPete]

I am considering removing the Banks exhaust set up and going back to stock. I think the Banks is just too loud for my taste. Has anyone felt the same way? If so, what is an estimated price to "undo" what has been done? For that matter, what to do with the Banks system after it has been removed? It’s been on for two days and only 50 miles on it. Would anyone else be able to use it? Can it be shipped? I know that since it is a bolt on everything should come off in good condition. It was installed and will be removed by a certified mechanic.

Hey I'd love to take it off your hands for a reasonable price.

Did a search for you, plenty about this subject before and after this link.

I want to thank you 37L1 for doing a search and posting a link.

What I did find is that by removing the flared 5" tip, there is some loss of the "Boom" effect as the exhaust leaves. Almost like a bugle horn. Gasses come out and expand from a 4" to a 5" along that foot long tip. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom is what it sounded like at idle. I’ll try this for a day and see how I feel.

What I am noticing now is that the motor seems to "sputter" a lot. I notice it when accelerating 1/4 throttle from a stand still and from 2000 RPM to red line under hard acceleration. The mechanic said he never removed the negative terminal cable and said it was not necessary. I called Banks and they said it was put into the instruction manual to cover them legally. Just in case, you know, while changing your exhaust you reach into the fuse box.

I read a lot of threads discussing this issue of “resetting” the computer. Did anyone else notice the motor running slightly rough and then smoothing out over time after the exhaust mod ?
