The
ultimate upgrade for classic diesels is a Banks Sidewinder turbocharging
system. The Banks wastegated Sidewinder turbo unleashes gains
up to +82 hp and +143 lb-ft torque. You'll hardly recognize
Ol' Betsy!
With Banks' turbocharging technology onboard, she'll tow up the grade
quicker, and provide great fuel economy improvement.And thats No smoke!
Just unparalelled performance, reliability and durability. Banks puts
all of their products through vigorous testing to ensure the satisfaction
of even the top enthusiest.

SYSTEM INCLUDES:
Banks
Ram-Air intake
Banks Ram-Air intake includes a cast-aluminum Hi-Rise filter housing
plus lifetime, high-flow Banks Ram-Air filter that decreases intake
restriction and sends more cool, dense ram-air into your engine.
This also allowin air to move through with ease. Includes a service
kit for use every 30-50,000 miles.
Sidewinder
turbocharger
Banks utilizes an aircraft 713C Inconol turbine that outlasts
and out-performs the competition because it's bigger and more
efficient than the rest. The high-capacity Sidewinder compressor
produces more boost and a greater volume of cooler air than the
competitors' antique-style, smaller units. Banks lessens backpressure
and lowers EGTs, for more power and mileage and quick response
right off the line. Assembly includes wastegate actuator, pulse-tuned
cast exhaust inlet/turbine mount, cast-aluminum air inlet/vent
duct and cast-aluminum air inlet plenum.
Dynaflow
muffler
Banks replaces the factory's restrictive muffler with an aluminized,
free-flowing Dynaflow muffler that contributes greatly to eliminating
exhaust backpressure. Instead of using packing that can blow out
the tailpipe, Banks Dynaflow is resonance-tuned to dispel exhaust
gases through a suite of chambers and 3.5" outlet.
Monster
exhaust
Banks Monster exhaust system outflows stock and the competition.
Banks' constant-diameter Monster T.O.P. turbine-outlet pipe
flows better than the stock piece and preserves diesel durability
by keeping the turbine-outlet EGT safely at or below factory
specs. The streamlined exhaust pipe and 3.5" tailpipe
are formed of aluminized, heavy-wall tubing with constant-diameter
bends to slash backpressure. The polished-stainless 4"
tailpipe tip provides a cool finishing touch.
TransCommand
Banks' electronic TransCommand transforms E4OD and 4R100 automatics
into super-duty units by continually corresponding line pressure
to power and load levels. Instead of soft, car-like shift characteristics,
TransCommand produces firmer shifts, especially when hauling large
loads. The module senses the load and commands the transmission
to raise the hydraulic pressure accordingly. Light-throttle shifts
are smooth and firm, while full-throttle or heavy-load driving
produces solid, decisive shifts. Excessive clutch slippage is
eliminated, extending transmission life.
DynaFact
gauges
Banks DynaFact pyrometer protects engine life and fuel economy
with precision exhaust-gas temperature (EGT) measurements, 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' 0-15 psi
boost gauge monitors power, turbo performance. Includes 2-gauge
mounting panel. Top-mount and/or pillar-mount options available.
