    So, I'm trying to get a new exhaust kit for my tacoma and came across the Banks company, who I've heard very little about. I did a bunch of searching and came up empty handed, sooooo my question to y'all is:

    Do you have the Banks Monster exhaust on your 4.0L, and how does it sound?

    P.S.--I'm looking for something with a deep low growl, doesn't have to be incredibly loud, but sound isn't an issue.:D

    Thank you all in advance!:rolleyes:

    Lol, it's alright, my buddy has a cummins with Banks gear on it, he was the one who told me to check them out. YouTube happens to be a little light on the info for these, so I'm hoping for some actual experience with it.:D

    honestly.... the best sounding tacoma exhaust i have heard is the TRD catback and even then its meh.

    the v6 is just such a shitty exhaust note, so raspy and lame sounding. Stick with the stock exhaust imo.

    Well the truck stock doesn't sound terrible, however I do want it with a deeper more aggressive tone, just kind of a personal preference. I'll be sure to check out the TRD catback though

    TRD skid painted black,
    On a stock system, it is the loudest.
    I had it on my truck with the URD no rear cat system and I did not like it ( too loud ).
    I put it on my son's and he has rear cats and it is nice low V-6 sound.
    You will not get a V-8 sound so as long as you get that part you will be fine.
    It is a quality catback and a bit louder than the Toyota TRD, I have had both.
