Specifications
Derringer adds more torque and horsepower throughout the powerband than the competition safely and reliably letting you pull the grade without downshifting.
Why It's Better
A Tuner Above The Rest
The Derringer is dyno calibrated to use multiple data inputs such as throttle position, rpm, vehicle speed, AFP, knock, coolant temperature, and EGT, just like your engine's ECM.
It actively and safely optimizes calibrations in real-time thanks to its OBD-II connectivity while providing huge performance gains, all while keeping your factory ECM happy, temperatures under control, and transmission safe.
No competitive tuner does that.
CHOOSE YOUR POWER
Derringer has 6 levels, adjustable on-the-fly using the iDash. Level 6 produces best-in-class performance,
while Level 3 is for work use with great mid-range feel with a loaded truck and/or pulling a
trailer.
Banks ActiveSaftey® features combines mechannical
fail-safe measures to revert to stock in the case of failure, while also intelligently adding power based on
vehicle operating
conditions such as cold or hot coolent tempos or knocking from bad fuel.
The Derringer is the only tuner that actually utilizes your truck’s ECM to make intelligent calculations.
TUNED SAFE
ActiveSafety health monitoring circuitry keeps an eye on the vehicle and the module itself.
It checks its health 250 times a second. If it detects an issue, Derringer instantly bypasses itself, sets a device diagnostic code, and seamlessly returns the truck to stock power.
Plus, Derringer's special coolant temp monitoring prevents power addition when the engine is too cold or overheated.
The Derringer also auto-adjusts power if knock occurs due to bad fuel. Maximum safe power is all automatic with Derringer - just choose your preferred power level and enjoy the ride.
BANKS VS THE COMPETITION
The other guys claim big numbers on paper but simply don't deliver in the real world! We tested every other
tuner on the same dyno, same day, same weather, and same technician. All they do is add fuel with no aditional
air.
That’s where all the others fall short, infact power can even
be reduced under load as the tuner box and factory ECM fight each other over rising Exhaust Temps and
unsafe power delivery.

Get What You Pay For
Dont waste your money on competitive products offering cheap thrills that only dump fuel into the engine with no added air.
Invest in quality backed by engineering. When you compare the power gains per dollar spent, there is no question who offers the highest smile per dollar ratio.
CONSISTENT POWER DELIVERY
The real world benefits of powerful tuning done safely and reliably really show when youre hauling a heavy load.
In the case of TSPerformance, EGTs got hot so fast we actually saw the engine limit its power output before we could complete our real world tow test!
AutoRate® Dynamic Tuning
• Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) — Monitors EGT and intelligently modulates fueling to maintain a safe maximum EGT, protecting your turbo and engine.
• Altitude compensation — Senses ambient air pressure, controlling the turbocharger to maintain added boost and power as altitude increases.
• Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Regen — Monitors your DPF regen status to ensure the process completes successfully.
• Accelerator Pedal Monitoring — Rolls in additional power progressively, optimizing for both part-throttle fuel economy and max power when you ask for it.
• Full Power Timer — Allows for 30 seconds of wide-open throttle before transitioning to the recommended power level for sustained tow/haul.
• Coolant Temperature Monitoring — Maintains safe power based on coolant temp.
- • During warmup, no power is added below 120° F
- • Power ramps in & fully available above 150° F
- • If the coolant overheats for any reason, the Derringer starts removing its power at 230° F
- • Additional power is totally removed if you exceed 240° F
TransCommand® Active Transmission Safety System
The Derringer is calibrated to modulate power during shifting while ramping up hydraulic pressure for better engagement. Competitors lack OBD-II data and always add power at wide-open throttle causing excessive transmission, clutch, and torque converter slip and damage.
• Intelligent Shift Tuning — Shift signal is optimized for the power level protecting the transmission, increasing shift speed, and avoiding ECM power derates.
• Tuned Hydraulic Pressure —Ramps hydraulic pressure faster than stock, maintaining engagement as power is added safely within factory limits.
• Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Monitoring —Adjusts TCC slip to safe levels, lowering fluid temperature, and preventing extended wear.
- Calibration is tuned for optimum traction and performance providing the right firmness of shift automatically.
• Transmission Slip Monitoring - Light throttle shifts remain smooth and firm, full-throttle shifts are solid and decisive.
- This reduction in slip time also improves acceleration performance, an added benefit!
ActiveSafety® Health Monitoring
The Derringer is the only tuner available that includes Active Safety® health monitoring circuitry.
• Internal diagnostics check system 100 times per second.
• Checks MAP and FRP signals and monitors CPU activity
• Activates in event of failure or loss of 12V power
Bypass relays smoothly return stock
power with no loss of power or "Limp Home" Mode.

Reviews
Plug and play baby
"Pretty sick tuner. Little tough to get one of the connections done under the hood but after the 30 min install, makes an instant change. Best thing of all you get a little better gas mileage mainly when you are towing. Worth every penny!"
2011 F250 6.7 derringer
"Very easy to install and I am impressed with the power and torque added. I routinely tow mid size trailers in the eastern mountains. The torque change is noticeable."
Banks derringer and idash with pedal monster
"The pedal monster is the best part but it all has worked great and flawlessly I installed it all myself super awesome product and easy DIY install with pretty good instructions as long as you have some automotive common sense."
Banks
"Love mine highly recommended it to others it does what it says it does I love everything about for temps air flow to pressure it does it all Pss please send stickers I advertise the product a lot I tell everyone that is looking for a little something extra"
Extremely happy with the easy
"Extremely happy with the easy installation and operation of the Derringer and IDash gage. Also would like to thank the tech for help with the fuel pressure sensor hook up. The install is on a 2015 F350 6. 7 diesel. Thanks again to the Banks team."
Derringer/idash/Pedal Monster
"As a long time customer of many Banks products, I purchased and installed the Derringer/Idash/Pedal Monster on my 2016 F250 6. 7. Loved the links to the Banks Videos and that made it much easier to self install. I am extremely impressed with the products, the adjustability of the pedal monster and Derringer and the information the idash provides. Definitely worth the money and I highly recommend these products to anyone looking to spice up their truck."
Amazing power
"Can't believe the difference - added the cold air intake, the pedal monster and the derringer to my 2015 F-350. So far so good ...and the customer service and technical advisors are second to none!!!"
Best bang for the buck hands down
"Easy installation, all the necessary parts including a step bit to make hole for gauge wiring was included. Noticed immediate difference in joe truck responded . 2018 F550 service truck, very happy with purchase and what it has done for the truck. Also very pleased with how it controls transmission."
Great product
"The derringer was easy to install and made a big difference pulling a trailer in town."
Q&A
- Will this work with a pedal monster and power steps?
- Derringer should work fine with the Power steps, However if the PedalMonster and power steps communicate at the same time, you would want to set it to Non-ODB mode, and while in that mode; reverse safety will be disabled.
- Will the derringer for the 2012 Ford 6.7L work with the iDash Pro? I don’t want to use it with the obsolete IDash super gauge.
- Brian, currently, the iDash Pro will not control the Derringer for this application. The iDash SuperGauge and DataMonster are still supported products and will provide all the data and functionality Ford owners expect.
- I have been considering this tuner for my 2013 6.7 powerstroke. As you know the turbo on this year truck was prone to over spool when tuned by other aftermarket tuners. Does the derringer tuner prevent that from happening? I have been very hesitant to put a tuner on my truck for this very reason. Also what are the power gains with the 2011-2014 6.7 powerstroke? I current have the banks cold air intake. Thanks
- Derringer features a safe guard called ActiveSafety health monitoring circuitry - this keeps an eye on the vehicle and the module itself. It checks its health 250 times a second. If it detects an issue, Derringer instantly bypasses itself, sets a device diagnostic code, and seamlessly returns the truck to stock power. That being said, the Derringer does not make any guarantees that it'll fix or prevent issues like you are describing.
- I have had my 6.7 Powerstroke Derringer tuner and iDash for some time. First in my 2014 F250 then in my 2018 F350 (same unit). I recently purchased a 2022 F250 6.7 power stroke, Will you all be able to refresh or re-flash an older user for the 20202-2022?
- No, this 11-19 Ford 6.7L Derringer you current have will not transfer to 2020+ trucks as the harness, programming, circuit board and iDash all different
- Will this work on my 24 f250
- Gabe, we are working on two inline tuners, one for the 2020-2022 and one for the 2023-2024 as they require different calibrations. Signing up for this one is fine. We will notify all 2020-2024 owners when they're available.
