I just got through discussing the heat shield that is needed for the Banks headers with OK auto 4wd. They have talked to banks three time now about the heat shield. Each time banks has told them 3 to 4 weeks before they release the heat shield. OK auto and 4wd told them today that if it is not ready this time they are sending back all their headers to them and they will not do any more business with them. The banks exaust I have is starting to rust so they are not using very good stainless with their exhaust systems either.

 

any noticable difference in performance by adding the headers?

Thanks,

 

I have the banks headers that came with the heat shield. I waited until the shield was available before ordering. I noticed a difference in torque, but did this along with the Banks exhaust.

You are right about the Banks ss exhaust. Mine is starting to rust after 3 weeks. What a bunch of crap.

 

i was thinking about going with a full exhaust from them headers all the way back but if there SS is rusting 3 weeks after u bought it, then i think im going to have to stay away from it.

 

Thanx for the heads up. I have always trusted their products. I was thinking about this system.

 

Bank just told us it will be 3 more weeks for the heat shield. When are they going to get it straight. I will never do business with bank ever again.

 

That sucks.
I have the banks Monster exhaust and so far it has been problem free for 6 months.
Was thinking about the headers, but thanks for the heads up.
