I always felt like the numbers Banks claimed for the P.I. head V10 (2000+) were understated. I do a lot of trips with either my dad (5.4L van, stock) when I'm almost 2.5x his gross weight, and I can...

I had really bad drone on 2-lane highways, when I first put on the Banks PowerPack.

Banks suggested a turned tip instead of straight tip. That fixed it! Still more exhaust noise than stock, but...

Re: 6.8L V10 exhaust and intake...

I would agree with you. With the V10, it takes a big and heavy load before any power gains would be necessary to hold OD (but that also varies greatly based on gear ratio too) on rolling hills or...

Re: 6.8L V10 exhaust and intake...

I figure this is mostly true only at wide open throttle, or near WOT[/quote]

Re: 6.8L V10 exhaust and intake...

That is some nice clean work. Is it ceramic coated?

THe Y-pipe is a good upgrade.

I did the Banks setup, but did not remove the cat. It isn't a restriction, and I like being to breath clean air...

For Cat-back I don't see any real advantage with Banks. I had a MagnaFlow on my last van (5.8L) and my brother has it on his Expedition. It was a good improvement on both rigs.[/quote]

Re: 6.8L V10 exhaust and intake...

Skip the Gibson headers. They are too short. If you want headers, go with Banks. Otherwise you are better off with...
