Industry's finest intake, turbo, tuning and exhaust upgrades; tremendous power, durability. Top gains: +145 hp and +288 lb-ft (rear wheel) and 12% more MPG.
ISB PICKUP: The ultimate engineering upgrade for 24-valve turbo-diesels, PowerPack marries Banks High-Ram air-inlet casting and the highest OttoMind Tuner calibration to the Stinger-Plus system. With additional airflow and boost available to the intake valves through this final improvement, Banks calibrates the OttoMind features to reshape air and fuel curves for maximum horsepower and torque—translating to top gains of +145 hp and +288 lb-ft torque—with 12% better mileage and prolonged engine life.
Test vehicle: 1999 quad-cab 4-wheel drive pickup 215-hp rated • automatic transmission.
*Vehicles with higher rated engines: while the percentage gains will be less, the final power and performance output will be equivalent.

Monster® Exhaust
Banks Monster exhaust outflows stock and the competition. The streamlined exhaust pipe and 4" tailpipe are formed of stainless, heavy-wall tubing with constant-diameter bends to slash backpressure. Huge 5" polished-stainless steel tailpipe tip sports a rolled edge. Double-walled design with 1/2" air gap keeps heat from tarnishing exterior mirror finish. Adjustable clamp for positioning on tailpipe. |

Banks Ram-Air® filter
Banks Ram-Air filter is a lifetime, high-flow air-cleaner element that decreases intake restriction and sends more cool, dense ram-air into your engine. Even wet or dirty, Banks Ram-Air filters outperform conventional ones, because the multi-layer design traps moisture, dust and debris on the oiled, outer surface, allowing air to move through with ease. Includes a service kit for use every 30-50,000 miles. |
|
High-Ram® Intake
Improves airflow from the intercooler. High-Ram raises boost without increasing backpressure at the turbine. Result: a more responsive, fuel-efficient engine. |
|
OttoMind® Diesel Tuner
OttoMind calibrates fuel delivery and injection timing to maintain proper air-fuel ratio. What’s more, OttoMind protects diesel durability with AutoRate®, Banks’ exclusive electronic powertrain management system. AutoRate automatically adjusts engine power output to a safe level for prevailing conditions, provides torque converter clutch lockup protection (safeguards the torque converter during initial engagement of the clutch) and provides exhaust gas temperature limiting (EGT limiting with Git-Kit® requires optional thermocouple). |
|
Quick-Turbo® Assembly
Banks developed the Quick-Turbo in conjunction with the Holset turbocharger and Cummins Engine companies, to eliminate sluggishness "out of the hole" and produce strong acceleration. Quick-Turbo produces massive torque right from idle, achieves a higher peak faster, maintains more boost through the powerband, and doesn't over-boost. Banks' exclusive BigHead® wastegate actuator prevents "wastegate blow-open" by keeping the valve seated at higher pressures, increasing mid-range torque and top-end power. |
|
DynaFact® Gauges
Banks’ exclusive DynaFact electronic gauges offer precision that can’t be matched by mechanical gauges. The pyrometer provides exhaust-gas temperature (EGT) measurements that are accurate within ±15° F at maximum operating temperatures. The pyro's spring-loaded, jeweled movement is resistant to vibration and sports a lit, easy-to-read 0-1500° F face. Banks' 0-50 psi boost gauge monitors power and turbo performance. Includes 2-gauge mounting panel. Top-mount and/or pillar-mount options available. |

“Considering the fact that the fuel economy savings are substantial and the fact that the stainless steel exhaust will last the life of the vehicle, the Banks system is well worth the investment.”
