Everything I have heard about the Banks system sounds great. I have the Hooker on my 4th gen, and they also work well.

I was 99% percent on the Banks until I heard it. Good idle, but sounded like a 3.8 under acceleration. Don't get me wrong, every car is different, but it convinced me to go another route.

IMHO the hooker sounds to "artificial", kinda like the magnaflow.

The FM forceII actually sound REALLY good as long as you have a little cam lope. The American Thunder is cool, but you have to deal with the FM "droning" noise.

The mufflex/spintech sounds good if you can afford it.
