We went to Banawe-Vigan-Pagudpud via Nueva Viscaya last summer before the TPLEX opened. The mountain zigzag road portion is less than the Baguio-Bontoc-Sagada. It took me 10 hrs to drive at moderate speed starting at 9 in the morning, from Cavite through the traffic of C-6 and Mindanao Avenue. Be mindfull of the 100 kph speed limit in SCTEX. I was overtaken by a few SUVs that were later flagged down for overspeeding at the SCTEX toll exit. I drove a Sorrento and I was just enjoying the drive and taking it easy. Now that TPLEX is open to traffic, you can drive through and exit Victoria, go straight through Guimba, Munoz, San Jose City, Aritao, then Bagabag, which has a forked road left going up to Lagawe than Banawe. Do an overnight stay Banawe Hotel. The rooms are standard. Just for the experience you can dip in the hotel pool at the historic 8 centigrade temperature and live to tell about it! Sagada/Bontoc will be 1.5 hour drive away, but may take you longer now if the condition is foggy.
I although I have a GPS in my HUD, I used my Android cellphone Google maps before, and have a back up MapsWithMe free for offline use. Just recently I discovered Mapfactor Navigator Free for offline use and found this much better because it has voice direction, and can simulate your route navigation. It is based on OpenStreet maps so the landmarks along the route are fairly current and updated.
For your initial planning, you can open your route in Google Earth, which will show you the route in 3D topography.
Hope this will help you.

A little off topic.... one of my staff just came from a vacation in sagada. Based on what she relayed to me puro caves daw and trekking tapos may namatay pa daw sa loob ng cave nahulog.... Nakakatakot but it is all worth it daw. Masasabi mo na you conquered sagada after the adventure. Php5500 4D3N inclusive of meals.
