no banks is big on emmissions that why they have such clean tunes, some people stack the banks with Quadzilla Stealth 2, the banks is sophisticated enough to counter quadzilla tuning but still keep cel off.

Banks makes nice stuff. You might want to add a Transgo Jr. to help hold the extra power.

I personally have mixed feelings about my Banks Six-gun module. It certainly woke my pickup up, and did so with VERY little smoke. After installing it I was amazed that I could light the tires up at will. It also gave me a very nice mpg boost. The problems though, I could have easily made as much power with a cheaper module, or made tons more with a tuner costing about the same. Then there is the no start issue that just recently popped up. Of course it does it as soon as I am out of the country. I had my wife trying everything I could thing of to try and narrow down the problem. End result was I had her disconnect the Banks and try to start it. It fired right up and runs just as it should. So I had her put it back on and try again. It ran fine for a couple days, then once again, no start. So now I have an expensive paper weight waiting for me to come home and see what I can do about it. I have not heard of this from others though, so mine might be an isolated incident. Regardless I am less than pleased. My opinion is, when it comes to the tuners, your money is probably better spent elsewhere. I cannot speak for the rest of the banks stuff.

I have a 08 GMC LMM. Looking to get numbers off computer ( where is it?). Have a SCT tow package. When pulling 13000lbs. get service fuel filter light, and then service exhaust filter flashing, then goes to limp mode, if running on wet roads it's worse. Pryo goes to 1500 at times not enough boost low 20s. Any ideas. Thanks, Nelson

When was the last time you had your fuel filter changed? If its been a while you probably need to change it. With the fuel ow a days you could also have recieved some less than perfect fuel in a fill up and clogged the filter. Definitely watch and don't let EGTs get up that high if possible or you could start melting things and causing lots of problems.
