Default Banks exhaust or flowmaster muffler?

I have a AEM CAI and am looking for my exhaust to open up a bit.

Anyone have the banks cat back monster exhaust? What are your opinions on it? Is there a real difference in power or would I be better off just getting a flowmaster 40 series muffler?

ANy sound clips of either? Possible dyno figures? The banks website is very vague.

Save your money on the banks, get the flowmaster.

Flowmaster sounds good. I heard one on a JK and it wasn't V8 growl but wasn't a ricer sound either. It was a 40 series.

Don't know about the flowmaster, however, the Banks system I have had on for a year or so. I, also added the Banks headers along with a CAI. I like the sound and experienced a little more torque.

don't laugh. i have a cherry bomb extreme muffler on my rig. it's loud and raspy. that's the best way i can describe it; as opposed to ricey. nice rumble at idle.

this is all before i became aware of the mbrp exhaust. i really like the sound of it and will install it EVENTUALLY!!!!
