Easy-to-use Interface to Six-Gun® and EconoMind®6Though it has enormous capabilities, Banks' full-color PowerPDA is easy to use. It’s synchronized to your Six-Gun (for high-performance/sport/racing) or EconoMind (for working/towing/street use) with a host of default tuner settings you never have to think about. If all you want to do is adjust power levels on-the-fly at the push of a button, then that’s all you gotta do. But if you feel like tweaking the Six-Gun parameters, you can do that, too. (In other words, this is no clunky black-and-blue monitor with limited functionality!) |

Tons of Gauge OptionsPowerPDA displays six gauges at a time in the system monitor, including EGT and boost, system status, the current power level, and two user-selectable gauges (RPM, MPH, throttle position, barometric pressure, intake air temp, engine temp, trans temp, torque converter status, gear, trans slip and more).Many easy-to-read screen interfaces to choose from. |

Time Performance Runs, Log DataPowerPDA clocks your 0-60 mph, 1/4- and 1/8-mile performance runs, and the Hist-O-Graph Performance Test function records boost, EGT, and speed values, as well. Once your tire-scorching test is completed, a graph of the data is displayed. Performance runs are automatically stored with a time and date stamp for later retrieval. |

Scan & Clear CodesAt the touch of a screen, PowerPDA gives you the same diagnostic capabilities as your service technician at the dealership. Unlike cheap generic scanners that don't give you all of the information you need, PowerPDA includes a comprehensive, accurate, up-to-date diagnostic dictionary of on-board trouble codes and their definitions for your vehicle. Scanning and clearing codes couldn't be easier! |

Customize Speed-Loader® Power LevelWith PowerPDA, you can customize the Speed-Loader power level. Fine-tune it for an assertive response or go with an all-out aggressive in-your-face power setting. PowerPDA lets you get creative with the tuning, and gives you critical information about the parameter you want to modify. Tuning options include: accelerator pump, EGT limit, EGT overshoot time, coolant temp limits, trans slip fuel limit, fuel limit in each gear, and fuel limit during each shift. Each parameter has a default value and predefined range set by Banks engineers to give you ultimate control of your Six-Gun tuner. Note: With Six-Gun Diesel Tuner only |

Adjust for Non-Stock Tire SizesWhen you’re running non-stock tire sizes, Banks PowerPDA allows re-calibration of the vehicle speed parameter for accurate acceleration testing, using a chase vehicle or GPS for reference. (GPS device not included) |

Easy Review of Max Boost & EGTWhy take chances when it comes to critical engine parameters? PowerPDA automatically records the peak boost and EGT reached during normal driving or performance tests for later retrieval and review. |

Easy Tuner UpdatesUpdate the Firmware in your Six-Gun or EconoMind without having to remove it from the vehicle. Six-Gun and EconoMind are occasionally updated and this makes it easy to ensure you are running Banks’ latest tuner Firmware. |

“We went to the source of diesel-engine performance, Gale Banks Engineering, and struck gold. Not only did it take one stop to buy and have our parts installed, but the parts worked as advertised and the results were awesome.”
