Banks want's BIG money for that kit, if I were wanting more power I would look at a Diablo chip, cold air induction and a nice cat-back exhaust. Banks gets there power from there headers, that same power could be found in the things I just mentioned. Cheaper too.

If you want power approach the idea with a "complete kit" concept.
First there are gains to be had when adding any of several add-on components. You should look at the intake side of the engine as your primary focus for spending the biggest money. The stock V10 exhaust is quite nice and just replacing the muffler is all that is really needed on the cat-back end.
For the best set-up that is cost effective yet will yeild power think about this: "Po-boy FIPK" with a K&N drop-in filter, ANY aftermarket throttle body ( My favorite is the ACCUFAB), a set of headers using a new y-pipe( this can be made by your local shop) and finally a programmer/chip.
I run a more elaborate set-up, I have basically the same as above but added some other tricks. I love the power while retaining the MPG at a desireable level(10-11+ city) while running 93 octane. I love looking for power to squeeze out of this V10, it's just a matter of cash. Anyone willing to sponsor my project??
