What I am talking about is projects on television (Two Guys Garage), and magazine articles, have nothing for us. All recent projects are for Dodge and Chevy.

Stacey David, who was the host on TRUCKS, put a complete BANKS system on an F250 crew cab last year.

As I said before (recently) (this year), I have not seen any new projects.
How do you like your Banks setup?
Do you feel that the Banks setup gives you the extra power and fuel economy that you were looking for?
At 2000 rpm, can you feel the difference from stock?

I misunderstood. My bad. Diesel Builder mag has a nice write-up this month about a modified F350 diesel. BTW, Borders book stores seems to have all the diesel mags. FWIW.

Me personally i like my banks very much. i know some think that you pay alot and get nothing. as fas as power and fuel economy, they are both great. although it is hard to keep your foot out of it around town. i have gained about 2 mpg when towing and about the same around town. i went from 11mpg towing to 13mpg with the banks. at 2000rpm, i can tell a big diff. it seems to run with less effort and less strain.:thumbs

This is true about perf. mods, but have you noticed it is reversed for things like suspension. My brother has a new GMC Duramax, (which is a nice rig I must say), but you would not believe what he had to go through to get some bigger meats on his truck. They tweaked it up 4", and still had to cut the front bumper and remove his mud flaps. :eek:

I understood that it was to put 285's like I have on mine, but the other day we had the rigs side by side and his tires are 1-1/2" shorter than mine still. I did not have to do anything to mine to fit these tires, and that included Rachels Excursion. I sure like our suspensions better. :sweet
