The Leader in Diesel Performance
Gale Banks’ Trans Am broke the 200-mph barrier on an unlikely stretch of Route 66 — a 4.1-mile private driveway once owned by Mrs. Orcutt. Banks’ turbocharged legacy roared into the record books on this hidden piece of American history.
Gale Banks explains how to match a turbo to an engine by measuring boost and backpressure to calculate the boost-to-backpressure ratio and engine scavenge ratio.
Banks is bringing PedalMonster to Honda and Acura vehicles, offering improved throttle response and 150 tunable pedal response contours. Its OBD connectivity provides advanced control for smoother driving and better 0-60 performance.
Australian security technician David uses two Banks iDash SuperGauges in his 2024 Land Cruiser V8 to monitor engine parameters and prevent failures like those he experienced with previous Ford Rangers. The iDash provides crucial data and alerts.
Friends Bob and Noe, both RAM Diesel owners, upgraded their trucks with Banks Ram-Air intake, Monster-Ram system, and Ram-Air Differential Cover. The Monster-Ram provided noticeable power and throttle response improvements for their upcoming cross-country trip.
Diesel Army featured the Banks Ram-Air Differential Cover, highlighting its cooling and lubrication benefits for trucks. A 2021 RAM 2500 was used as an example, showcasing the cover’s internal fins and Ram-Air scoops.
Percy Reynolds tested the PedalMonster on his 2023 Chevy Duramax, noting instant throttle response even in CITY mode. He was impressed with the elimination of pedal lag and the overall improvement in driving experience.
Dave Bell and sons from Dave’s Auto Center recommend the Banks Monster-Ram intake system. They emphasize the importance of proper airflow for diesel engines and how the Monster-Ram provides it, unlike simply adding more fuel.
