Did this exhaust on 06 with 5.4 and it barks when you hit the go peddle. It did exhibit a bit of drone on highway .

I have this system on my 2013 5.0. One of the best exhaust systems I've ever had, to be honest. It rumbles when you first start it and when the RPMS drop, you barely notice it.
It's not ignorant to your neighbors (or especially yourself) and definitely opens up quite a bit when get in the pedal! With my 5.0, I do not get any hwy drone either. (I left my resonator on & choose to do so.... It's straight thru anyways) plus that is how they, (Banks) designed the system.
There are some really nice systems for our trucks including the solo & magnaflow.... But I'm very pleased with this system & would buy the same kit for my next truck.
I don't needs "duals" (your just paying for more pipe that does more restriction versus a single exhaust anyways). Plus, their tip is one if the most unique & classy tips out there! (JMO).

Thanks for the input, I like the single out also. Never been a big fan of duals.

Have this system on my 2010 5.4 and love it. I was very particular about what system I get. I hate raspy exhausts so when I heard a few clips of the banks it's was spot on.

On the expressway I get a drone at 2k rpm and 60 mph.

The exhaust is one of the deepest tones I have heard and really wakes up when you hammer in the gas.

Just ordered the Banks for my 14.
I have used Banks Catbacks in the day when I had my Powerstrokes and was really impressed with the system.
Been looking for a Catback for this new 14, happy I didn't jump the gun and get something else as I forgot about "Banks", decently priced at $441 shipped, I got mine for $383 shipped.

I love the look of the system and the tone, but I want to hear one without the resonator.

My BANKS Monster Exhaust system is on, sounds great. Today I was only able to get to 55mph, tomorrow I'll take it out for spin at 75 but no way will I give up this set-up.
