Banks has good tuning. But it is over priced. You can have 500+hp plus and 1000+tq for $200 less. Banks will still hurt your trans. It will defuel when it senses slip. By then damage has already been done. Do that too many times and your calling Suncoast or ATS. That is very pricey.

Your torque is about 100ftlbs low for your hp. So either your trans is hating or they start fueling late. Personally I do not care for all that extra stuff in cab. You would never guess my truck runs like it does till all you see is tailgate and smoke!

By the way your milage should not suffer from increased HP. Tires on the other hand that is a different story!
