See with banks you changed everything on your truck and spent thousands to beat a single tuner that build 75 horse on its top setting and sells for 700 bucks. Thats like comparing apples to a watermelon

Sounds more like the big hoss package than the power pack.


To the OP all I would do is change the Ottomind out for an Edge Juice or a comp or a Quadzilla Adrenaline or a TST Comp.

The banks intake, that is the curved piece on the Driver side of the head correct? If so that can stay. Buy a decent air Intake like an AFE and you should be rockin.

Is your trans an auto or a manual? If so your going to need upgrades to it soon. Get a fluid temp gauge for it too(though if you buy the Quad ADR or the Edge Juice it comes with them) Also get a good lift pump like an Air dog or a FASS.

The fact that you have the Big Hoss tuner throws the comparison out the window. I don't think Banks even offers the Big Hoss for the 24v Cummins.

The whole "smoke is bad" thing is good yes, but it just doesn't work on dinosaur tech. The powerstrokes and the duramaxs have a lot greater control over their fuel delivery. They have better computers that can program the fueling maps to where they are pretty smokeless and make good power.

Unfortunately 24v and 12v(even the CR cummins to an extent) owners don't benefit from that. For us, with power comes smoke. The responsibility is on the driver to know how to drive his truck and not on the electronic nannies to make us smoke free.

And if you wanna make power you dont use banks parts except for their intercoolers are decent, and some of their intakes are good. We have problems with most of our banks tuner that we sell. Maybe it works for some people but for a guy that wants to make power spend $3000 on a good tuner air intake exhaust, exhaust manifold and a turbo, and not $3000 on a name that gains you half of what they state IMO
