The Leader in Diesel Performance
Jim Powell’s 2007 GMC Sierra 2500HD Duramax, bought new, now features Banks Ram-Air Intake, Differential Cover, and Monster Exhaust. These upgrades improved his in-town MPG from 14-15 to 17.7 and highway MPG from 17 to 21.7.
Justin from JB Reviews conducted a back-to-back towing test on a 6% grade, comparing his 2024 GMC Sierra with a Banks Monster-Ram and Boost Tube Upgrade Kit to a lighter 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500. Despite his truck being heavier with more fuel and taller tires, it outperformed the stock Silverado, reaching a higher speed (79 MPH vs. 78 MPH, with potential for 81 MPH if not for traffic). This test served as a rebuttal to skeptics who dismissed the Banks components as mere “engine jewelry,” proving their impact on acceleration and performance, as also indicated by lower intake temperatures in a previous test. Justin strongly recommends the Banks upgrades based on these results.
