The Leader in Diesel Performance
Banks Power is launching a new line of products in 2025 that promise to deliver significant performance gains. The article mentions the iDash 1.8 SuperGauge, PedalMonster, Ram-Air Intake systems, and other upgrades designed to improve horsepower, torque, and overall vehicle performance. Banks emphasizes its commitment to quality and innovation in this upcoming product release.
The Banks Ram-Air Transmission Pan allows for a complete fluid drain in vehicles equipped with the Allison 1000 transmission. Stock pans don’t allow for a full drain. This pan features a magnetic drain plug at the lowest point, facilitating a complete drain without pan removal. It also lowers fluid temperatures. Available for 2001-2019 Duramax, and coming soon for other models.
Ted Soares upgraded his 1994 Dodge RAM work truck with a Banks Twin-Ram Intake Manifold and Quick-Turbo turbine housing. These upgrades were crucial for handling the truck’s heavy load, weighing over 15,000 pounds. The truck, a long-time companion of Ted’s business, received these enhancements to boost its power.
Tony Chumakov, from the Bimmer and Duramax maintenance and upgrade channel, installed a Banks CoolRunner Oil Pan on his 2017 L5P Duramax Silverado. The installation took 2.5 hours and was straightforward. Tony highlighted that the Banks pan’s design allows for a complete oil drain, unlike the stock pan which leaves about 0.6 quarts of old oil. He also noted the pan’s good fitment, clean draining process, improved heat dissipation, and the benefit of two additional quarts of oil capacity.
David from Willomet Motor & Fab upgraded his 2001 Duramax LB7 with a Banks Ram-Air Intake System to improve its towing capabilities for his 1985 Diesel Chevy Suburban project. While not seeking massive power gains, David reported a ¾ mile per gallon increase in highway fuel economy and a noticeable improvement in throttle response, particularly in the mid-range. He also noted the easy 30-minute installation of the bolt-on system.
Banks Power’s Monster-Ram intake manifold for 2019-2024 Ram 6.7L Cummins trucks is now emissions-compliant in all 50 states. This high-performance intake manifold improves airflow to the engine, resulting in increased power and torque. The updated design meets CARB (California Air Resources Board) requirements, ensuring legal use nationwide.
Banks Power is offering savings on open box, overstock, and clearance items. Open-box performance parts are unused and thoroughly inspected. Overstock and clearance items are new parts at reduced prices. These deals include Derringer tuners, Ram-Air Intakes, Monster-Exhaust systems, Exhaust Brakes, and Ram-Air differential covers.
Traditional boost gauges only measure air pressure, which isn’t a complete picture of engine performance. Banks Power’s iDash digital monitor measures Manifold Air Density (MAD), which accounts for pressure, temperature, and humidity, providing a more accurate reading of an engine’s performance. Higher air density means more oxygen per volume, which is crucial for optimal engine function.
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.
After experiencing the enhanced throttle response of the Banks PedalMonster on his 2023 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss, Travis from jt4x4offroading had to temporarily remove it. He immediately noticed the return of the factory throttle lag and sluggishness, emphasizing how significantly the PedalMonster had improved his daily driving experience and off-road control. His week without the PedalMonster reinforced its value and the immediate difference it makes.
