BHR shee Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 helloo I have a stock banshee model 2007 and I want to buy a new headers >> but which one is better between these two companis ??? t5 ?? or pro circuit ?? what about the sound ? which one has a nice sound ? and what about performance ?? looking for ur help :cool: Quote
dajogejr Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Slower riding, trails, woods....PCs. Faster trails, open fire roads, dunes...T5s. I personally love the sound of T5s...but that's a personal preference.... Quote
nunyabinness Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 it's personal preference. you are not going to get any more power out of the t-5's than you are out of the PC's on a stock banshee. the PC's come on lower and pull all the way through the rpm range. the t-5's have a mid range hit but nothing in the lower rpm range. personally i like the PC's better but that's just my opinion.

I'd disagree....to the point the T5s make more power in the upper RPMs...but totally agree PC's make more power in lower RPMs. I'd also say the T5s rev out further.... Quote
BHR shee Posted June 27, 2007 Author Report Posted June 27, 2007 wow thanks guys for your opinion !! so what do u recommend for my to buy ??????? we are waiting for the others opinion .. I think that i'm goning to buy a Pro Circuit .... Quote
nunyabinness Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 (edited) the reason i said what i said about the t-5's not putting out anymore power than the PC's is because i had some friends down in Medford, OR that had gone and bought a pair of banshees (new from a stealership) his was an 01 and hers was an 02 (bought them a couple of months apart). his had the t-5's and hers had the PC. they would go to the dunes and drag race against each other. when she would ride her bike she would beat him and when she would ride his bike she would beat him by roughly the same amount. when ever he would do an upgrade on one bike he would do the same upgrade on her bike and the results were always the same. but he is a very competitive person and one of his other friends bought a banshee and so then he had to keep up with Tom's bike so then the upgrades for her bike stopped happening as much. my personal preference... i like the PC pipes but that's because i like to be able to just put around sometimes and the t-5's don't really allow you to do that. and Dave, i'm not saying you are wrong (you have a TON more experience with banshees than i do). i am just stating what i have seen.

BansheeKid15 Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 If she was beating him on her bike and his bike... Its a factor of weight (assuming she didnt weigh as much as him) and then it comes down to the rider. I know a dyno reading is not the most accurate thing, but neither is drag racing. The best way (if you can) would be to test both and decide for yourself. All the above is good information, take all of it into consideration when your buying new pipes. Good luck on your decision, either way from stock pipes... it will be a nice difference Quote
dajogejr Posted June 27, 2007 Report Posted June 27, 2007 my personal preference... i like the PC pipes but that's because i like to be able to just put around sometimes and the t-5's don't really allow you to do that.and Dave, i'm not saying you are wrong (you have a TON more experience with banshees than i do). i am just stating what i have seen. I will definately agree PC are a better pipe to putt around in.... The T5s have a real hit to them, that's for sure.... However, once I advanced my timing to 4 degrees and lightened my flywheel, they really...really smoothed out. Even my die hard 4 stroke buddies were impressed how it changed the bike. It's not real fair to judge one bike next to the other, and the reason being is simple....no two bikes run alike. The PC bike could've just been a better running bike... Now...if you would've went from PC to T5 on the same bike, adjusted the jetting accordingly (if needed) and dyno'd then ran it against a "benchmark" bike ...well, you get the idea. The only reason I say that...nunya...is because I've ridden a PC and a Bills equipped buddies banshee. Maybe I was partial to my bike, but neither seemed to pull or rev as far as mine did....and we all had, at that time, pipes and air filters.... Of course...like I said, no two bikes run the same....so, that shoots a big old hole in my speech...LOL.... Quote
nunyabinness Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 However, once I advanced my timing to 4 degrees and lightened my flywheel, they really...really smoothed out. if i remember correctly that's what my friend did as well and he said about the same thing. and BansheeKid15, i agree with your statement that i think it was a weight thing... that was my point about the pipes being roughly the same as far as HP gains. BHR shee, i think you will be happy with either set of pipes. Quote
Toomey Banshee Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 I have a bike with T-5's thats stock port, a ported bike with CPI's and a ported bike with SST's. When the T-5 bike was mine, (its now one of my sons) I would race a friend with PC's, pretty much the same mods as I had at the time, which were pipes, reeds and tires, if I remember right. He would get me out of the hole but I would catch up, by then the race was over. Now, my bike with the CPI's, believe it or not will lug around the best of all my bikes. Its an aggressive dune port with 33's etc but still decent low end with some timing advance and just runs great. The bike with the SST's is a pain in the ass to tune, but it runs good when it runs, if you know what I mean. As far as sound goes the Toomeys sound the best of all my bikes. Fit and finish wise Toomey is about the best your gonna get. The chrome is outstanding and they hold up great. I would suggest toomeys over PC's, just from my experience. Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 t5 all the way.. i wouldnt bother with pro circuit or t6.. t5 are great for stock motor and once ported will really shine. Quote
2strokeme Posted July 4, 2007 Report Posted July 4, 2007 I just bought a set of T6's. I havent got them on yet. Just wondering if there is much difference in the 5's and 6's? I have PC"s on my banshee right now(other mod's cool head w/20cc, VF3's,200w stator,lightened flywheel,K&N,PC's) Hopefully I'll notice some difference in the T6's from the PC's. Another question while i'm on here: What jet size sound right for my application when i put the t6s on?(elevation might be below 1000 ft above sea level) someone said go w/ 310???? thanks everyone!
