Upgraded the truck

[theskaz]

Added the Banks Power Six-Gun Power Bundle to the truck. So here are some pix. This kit is rediculous!!! On lvl 6.....I really have to watch my foot. The gas mileage pic is from lvl 2. Normally it is 14.2-14.7

Have you done any upgrades to your transmission? Just curious if blasting around on level 5-6 would be ok on a stock trans...

after the transmission "learns" the new shift pattern for the new power level... yes

after all, it is an Allison tranny.

or at least, that's what I'm told

level 6? no, level 2? yes.

It has Gobs of more power. Banks boasts +303 ft lbs of torque.

even on lvl 1 and 2 i can feel a strong difference. I am told that is because of the new airbox.

What bothers me is why don't they come from the factory with this power? If its so easily available, why not tune it that way originally?

Check your fuel mpg. My computer lies to me. I thought I was getting 22mpg but when I filled up and did the math, it was only like 13

Mine is very accurate....only problem is that it tells me I am getting 13...

If you get a chip that plugs in downstream from your ECU, you don't have to worry about warranty issues.

I have this in my Hilux and it really makes a big difference in both fuel economy and power.
