I really want to see the banks exhaust with the oval tip on each side. Ive done a search, but all the threads with pics, either only show both tips on one side or the pics are no longer available. can someone show me a picture of this installed on a camaro?
Supreme Member
hmmm, Scott57350 had some awesome pics of his, but yeah they aren't available anymore.
hopefully somebody will post w/ some pics...if not, i should have mine sometime in the middle of next week with oval tips on each side.
it's $35 more i think to get the tips, but well worth it IMO from seeing the pics...but still, for the exhaust/tips/shipping, it's only like $330...you'd be hard pressed to beat that

the only thread i could find had bad links.

there is some pics on that thread with the exhaust system out of the box.don't look at the links on the first postings,scroll down and you will see the pics of the system
oh. i really want to see a pic of the oval tips on a camaro. the system looks good on the ground, but i need to decide if i like the tips on the car.

hey sorry i don't think I have my pics anymore on my comp. let me look though and I'll see if I can find any. But everyone that asks what exhaust system tell me they love it and it sounds awsome and they can't belive the price when I tell them. I love the way it looks b/c the tips don;t stick out to far there rit in line with the bumper. and with the 4th gen back its only a quick hanger change that u can get at autozone
Awesome. Thanks!

well no pics tonight...the s.o.b. rusty bolts connecting the pipe to the cat would NOT break loose. got some rust eater sitting on there right now, and i'll tackle it again in the morning. this should be a 45min-60min job but those 2 bolts are stopping me from goin any farther. anyway, should have pics up tomorrow
Supreme Member
well, ended up having to take it to a shop. couldn't get the damn cat bolts off, and the shop couldn't either. they used the air wrench thing, and broke the heads off both the bolts without loosening them at all.
anyway, i had cut the cat off and weld in straight pipe in place of it. here's a couple pics:

Well just a thought but I always use SS bolts,locks and nuts when working on exh. systems. Costs a little more but well worth it.

Where do you order banks exhaust?
Is it the whole cat-back system for $330 as mentioned by someone on this thread?
Thanks

It sounds AWWWWWWWWSOME!!! Little more rumble than the borla system at less then half the cost. www.enginetechandfab.com/store/page49.html
Supreme Member
It sure does sound good ....right out of the box too . and your nickname is appropriate 

so does anyone have a link to a sound clip or have a sound clip to post?
Im confused did some say they bought the 4th gen one then a hanger to make it fit ? why

Not to hijack the post, but has anyone heard this on a fourth gen? I recently got a 95 Z28 and want something different so i was looking into the Banks system. Any opinions on this for a fourth gen?
Supreme Member
Never heard it on a 4th gen, but I'd imagine it would sound great. IMO, 4th gen's with exhaust sound MUCH better than 3rd gen's with exhaust. Banks sounds great on 3rd gens, I'm sure it'd be incredible on 4th gens.
Member
i heard one on a 4th gen at a rally a year or so ago..the tips on the car gave it away and I talked with the guy a little bit about how he liked it..He was really happy with it and said he bought it off ebay from a guy who was parting out his car.in fact he did not know banks even still made the systems!...It sounded REALLY good on the LT1

Is it a true 3" cat back? They dont list the I-pipe size at all.
Member
I just ordered one. The split 4th gen look is an additional $35 for a system total of $310 (305tpi). Shipping was $50 on top of that. Enginetech was very helpful and friendly and they told me that I should have the system in 3-4 wks. I don't think they are stocking them, but getting them from Banks as they need them, who knows, maybe banks is fabricating them to order.FYI, I called Banks about getting one directly from them and they sent me right to enginetech.
Supreme Member
Hey 1gta2c I am interested in more pictures of that exhaust. You got a link or something?
Member
I pretty much think that entec is the only company getting the systems from Banks.I don't know if they have a special deal with Banks or not as far as them being the only ones who sell it,but I am quite sure you will really like it when you get it on!

Member
I will take some more pics. this weekend and post them. Which angle would you like to see?? It is a great system and you can't go wrong for that price. I still have the stock set up and I had to go to a truck place to get the 3" exhaust to fit the stock 2 3/4" pipe after the cat's. Oh ya it sounds ammmmazing.
Take a pic of how the driver tail pipe is hung and a pic from behind the others were too close.
Junior Member
i'll try and get ya some pics soon i have one on my 91Z28. Don't worry about the hanger change its so simple its alot easier then ya think but let me see what I can get ya

I ordered mine from Entech on 8/2 and recieved it on 8/10. They also told me 3 to 4 weeks. Looks great too, just have to wait for my headers from ACS now.
Supreme Member

Member

I am really thinking of getting the banks cat-back. I have a flowmaster 80 series catback on now. How do the to compare? Is the banks going to be louder? I want louder I am just not impressed w/ the 80 series on my trans am. On my camaro I have just the 80 series muffler only and it sounds much better than on the tans am? Any feedback welcome!

I just ordered mine yesterday. I have read that its a lot better sound than the flowmaster, also read its louder. I have the flowmaster on my car with SLP 1 3/4ths and single cat.. it sounded ok, but really not spectacular or anything. I installed a 3 inch cutout and that was fun, just a little tooo loud when its screaming at a constant level when going 70-75 down the highway for 20 min. I capped it and it doesn't even feel like my car is on anymore.. haha. The cat broke up on me and i now have straight pipe, but not before it puked into the muffler. So looks like i am going to run open headers until the banks system comes in.Originally posted by 85maroz28

Also.. whats the difference in the catback vs just having the muffler on your other car? Pipe size? Quality of bends? Type of cat? difference in the engines or headers? There is a lot of different things that effect the sound of exhaust. If you are able to get the system closer to the way you like it by changing things aruond the muffler, it could be cheaper than a whole new cat-back.
Supreme Member
Hey 1gta2c we are still waiting for the pics! Come on I am dieing to see them!:hail: 

Supreme Member
Thanks for the pics! Looks good but you can not really see the tips that well. I think I am leaning more towards the loud mouth. I like the look of the banks but I love the sound of the loud mouth. I am torn!



Sorry guy's, I will post them tonight when I get home.
