Borla vs. Banks
I have read tons of stuff about both of these exhaust systems but i am still torn between the two. I know that Banks is cheaper but does it have the same sound and performance gains as Borla does? any and all opinions welcome
and i havent found a sound clip of the banks system yet so if you have one, please post it.
Thnx

Banks all the way!! Have it and Love it....
Here is my sound clip, not the best but you get the idea.
It is has a nice bark when you are on it, at cruse it is nice and mellow.

in my sig, you will not be disappointed in the banks. The banks # in my sig was directly from banks for the two on one side exit. I'm not sure you can get that anymore. I think that they are using the 4th gen design of muffler and exit on each side.

as far as I know you can still get both systems..The 2 one the left is the standard system, but it seems most like the 4th gen exit after I started posting a long time ago how much I liked mine ..Get the Banks!....Although you may have to wait awhile to get it because it is not a priority build for the company, it is a much better system overall and with the $$ you save you can get other mods

it has been so long since I heard a random system I can't really say for sure..If I remember correctly I thought the random system sounded pretty good, but not near as mean as my Banks kit.Plus,price wise it was about the same and the material is much better on the banks..Oh, I also saw that TPIS is now selling the banks kits again....Interesting
