To show how good Banks stuff is, a couple months ago, Tyler didnt like them. Told various people they were not worth it, cost too much, etc. And now that he actually has their products, he has changed his tune.

Sure, they are expensive, but thats because what they design, WORKS! What they promise you, YOU GET! And, of course, a ram-air intake will now show its true gain on the dyno. It only works when your at speed. So you will make more power at 100mph than you will at 50mph.

I am not going to start a arguement here i am informing people how i feel about the intake. So unless you have a questions or thoughts on how you like your Banks Products, please dont clutter.

I admit i wasnt a believer, I knew they were good but they are alot of money that many dont people dont have. I have yet to try tuning. But my girlfriend's dad knows Gale so i am gonna talk to her dad about what he thinks. He is also a engineer.

Thanks kindly

just backing up that a good product converted another user. It was meant to be a compliment.

Well thanks i know they good, lets just say not that good. I have installed many intakes nothing this flawless. If they do a turbo-back for the LMM they would make a gold mine.

But you know they never will, unless the turbo back included a DPF replacement. Banks has never been one to violate any emissions equipment. He likes a challenge of getting the most hp out of what the factory gave him.

They are going to have a few off-road only options in the future. He knows where the market going. Good thing is it will still be clean power.
