Six-Gun® Diesel Tuner & PowerPDA®Truck-sport

Tuning that doesn’t kill the host vehicle.
Many tuners reduce fuel delivery as exhaust gas temps rise. But they ignore the powertrain! Banks finds the limits of the engine and powertrain, then adds mission-critical ActiveSafety safeguards to Six-Gun so it won’t exceed those limits. As a result, Six-Gun thrashes challengers, not your truck!

Proof of a higher power.
Calibrated for sport applications, Six-Gun is a performance junkie that adds +128 hp/+345 lb-ft. With its comprehensive fuel tuning and change-on-the-fly power, Six-Gun with PowerPDA rockets you from 0-60 mph 33% quicker and in 36% less distance than stock!

The commander-in-chief: PowerPDA®.
A portable touch-screen vehicle command center, Banks PowerPDA enables easy control and customization of Six-Gun functions. It punches up Six-Gun’s best gains to +155 hp/+385 lb-ft. Adds temp-limiting safety. Displays up to 15 engine parameters. Times performance runs. Reads/defines/clears vehicle codes. Has a docking station with a built-in charger. And offers full PDA functionality.

All gains measured at the rear wheels, with recommended airflow improvements.

LB7 Six-Gun: Smoke ‘em Out, Daddy!

2005-05-27

Ted of Williamsville, New York, installed a Six-Gun Diesel Tuner on an ’01-04 Duramax LB7 4X4 crewcab with a 6.6L turbo-diesel

Wow—awesome power!! I love this system--and so do my 2 young boys (ages 5 and 8)--"Give it some boost, daddy!"; "Smoke 'em out, daddy!" This system is making other vehicles on the road look like four cylinders!! I took it to my local racetrack (unfortunately, only 1/8th mile), but seemed to embarrass a Mustang GT that I was up against. Turned a 9.7 flat on the track--darn good for a 6,000 lb diesel pickup 4x4 crewcab with stock tires!! No laughing after I did my race! Thanks for making a killer product!!


LB7 tuner & exhaust: Way More Fun Than Any Muscle Car I’ve Owned Over The Last 35 Years

2005-04-15

Steve of Sarasota, Florida, installed a Six-Gun, Speed-Loader and Monster exhaust system on an ’02 GMC 2500HD with a Duramax 6.6L turbo-diesel

I pull a 12,000 pound construction trailer with my GMC 6.6 D/A 2500HD. I have installed the Six-Gun, Speed-Loader, and [Monster] Exhaust. WOW!! I recently towed 2,200 miles from Florida to Indiana and back. Mileage is way up. Exhaust temp is way down and the torque is Unbelievable. Without the trailer and just with a little spool up on the brakes at a red light, this thing will smoke just about any production street car. This is way more fun that any muscle car I have ever owned over the last 35 years. Thanks for your great products.


LB7 tuner & exhaust: Even the Other “Chipped” Diesels Could Not Keep Up!

2005-02-07

Jim of West Columbia, Texas, installed a Six-Gun and a Monster Exhaust system on an ’01-04 K2500 Crew Cab Duramax LB7 6.6L turbo-diesel

I bought my new K2500 Crew Cab because I had just out-grown my old 1/2 ton. My business had expanded so much that my old truck was getting tired. I have always been a GM man and was getting so tired of the "Power choke" and "Wait, I'm Cummins" boys bash the DuraMax. I started to look at diesel "hop-up" products. I went with Banks because you are known for your milestone diesel enhancements with over all concern for safety and dependability. After the install I was shocked with the results that were achieved. I went out to show off my new toys, and found that even the other "chipped" diesels could not keep up! I wear my Banks stickers with pride because all the other guys are spending more money on other companies’ products trying to catch me (us). I wish they would only listen and call BANKS!
