Just wanted to let you guys know that the sale on the Banks system is ending with March!! $450.00 plus about $55.00 for shipping.(people in CA must be charged taxes!!) So if you guys are thinking about buying, better hurry!! After March, it will go to $509.00 plush shipping, which is still a good price from a list of $599.00. Just call me at 1-800-689-6560 and ask for Jamie!!

resonation has not been an issue at all.Like with other banks systems I have used in the past,there have been no resonance problems.Throaty,healthy and you can hear a nice hummmm,but no drone inside the vehicle at all.I have not needed to turn up the tunes to hear the stereo over it or drown out my wife talking

I have not talked to truxedo yet, but it is difficult to sell those kinds of products, mainly for storage and installation!!

Yes, each time I see a new post in this thread, I have to check, hoping to see the elusive dyno sheet, but alas. . . . .

What a blast!

Got time on a lift this morning and put on the Banks Monster Exhaust. I'm no mechanic, that's for sure and this is the first exhaust mod I've ever done. So believe me when I tell you it went on easy. 90 minutes and I went s l o w....

The stock exhaust comes off with no fuss. The Banks goes on perfectly, with no surprises. The directions are right on.

The whole experience was a real pleasure. All the "gearheads", and I use this term with much respect and admiration, were giving me a hard time, at first, because it wasn't a Big 3 truck.

I took the ribbing good naturedly and by the time I was done, the truck and the Banks was attracting so much attention, that I could have pulled a "Tom Sawyer" and had 5 guys installing this thing for me!

A bunch of them got under the truck and were remarking how well laid out everything was, hell, I couldn't get out of there to try my exhaust on the road because everyone wanted to get in and poke around. Not one person said one negative thing after looking it over and a few were mentioning that they "just might think about" getting one for themselves.

The TITAN Revolution has begun.

Here are some before and after photos. Nice throaty growl and watching the fuel consumption guage on the NAV driving home I can already tell there will be an increase in the MPG, just don't know how much yet. Stay tuned!

Are the Banks pipes bigger? I thought it was muffler design and less "crimping" in the pipes. ?
