Dear Customer,
If you have any questions
concerning the installation of
your Banks Twin Turbo System,
please call our Technical Service
Hotline at (888) 839-2700
between 7:00 am and 5:00 pm
(PT). If you have any questions
relating to shipping or billing,
please contact our Customer
Service Department at
(888) 839-5600.
Thank you.
1.
Before starting work, familiarize
yourself with the installation
procedure by reading all of the
instructions.
2.
Throughout this manual, the left
side of the vehicle refers to the
driver’s side, and the right side to the
passenger’s side.
3.
Before installing any components,
inspect them for any foreign material
that may have entered during shipping
and handling, machining or assembly.
Remove any burrs, machining chips
and polishing compound from
castings. Rinse all hoses and tube
assemblies with solvent and blow dry,
especially braided hoses after
assembly of hose-end fittings.
4.
Teflon paste has been provided
with this kit for pipe thread
assemblies. We recommend it over
Teflon tape to eliminate the possibility
of tape fragments getting into the
lubrication and fuel systems. Flared
fittings, hose and tube assemblies
require no sealant.
5.
Plastic or fiberglass parts, rubber
hoses, brake lines, wiring, etc. in close
proximity to hot exhaust components
will need to be shielded from heat. We
do not recommend that the exhaust
system be covered with any kind of
heat wrap or blanket, as this may
overheat it causing warpage, cracks,
or burnout. We recommend placing
heat shielding on or between adjacent
components. This may be in the form
of reflective blanket material, or sheet
metal forming air gaps, such as on our
turbo exhaust manifold. On vehicles
with low hood lines, it is advisable to
mount heat shielding on the underside
of the hood over the turbos and
exhaust piping.
6.
Check valves may need to be
installed in-line with any accessories
normally operated by manifold
vacuum. (e.g. power brake booster,
automatic transmission modulator,
heater or A/C dampers)
7.
When connecting MAP sensor,
reference line should be connected to
manifold vacuum/pressure below the
throttle blades. No check valve should
be used.
8.
During installation, keep the work
area clean. Do not allow anything to
be dropped into intake, exhaust, or
lubrication system components while
performing the installation, as foreign
objects will cause immediate engine
damage upon start-up.
9.
These instructions describe the
final assembly of the turbo system on
a finished engine. We suggest you
make a dry-run assembly of all
components finger-tight to verify any
issues of fit and to familiarize yourself
with the procedure.
