stock blaster front shocks and stock banshee front shocks

why do people say the banshee fronts are better then the blasters ? they look the same what am i missing out on :-/

The banshee shocks have about 3/4" more travel, the spring has a bunch more travel (it stretches from the top to the bottom), and the springs are progressively wound instead of straight wound so they'll give more on small bumps but still resist bottoming out on bigger bumps.

Yep. What he said.

Now, don't expect miracles from stock shocks.... and don't overpay for banshee shocks.

They are a slight improvement (read: about 10% better) and should not be more than about $50 for the pair in working condition. Any more expensive and you should save your other pennies and buy a good set of used aftermarket shocks.
