Dear Customer,
If you have any questions
concerning the installation
of your Banks Six-Gun Diesel
Tuner, please call our Technical
Service Hotline at (888) 839-
2700 between 7:00am and
5:00pm (PST). If you have any
questions relating to shipping
or billing, please contact our
Customer Service Department
at (888) 839-5600.
Thank you.
The Banks Six-Gun Diesel Tuner has six
power levels adjustable by the supplied
Six-Gun Switch.
The optional Banks PowerPDA is a
versatile touch-screen interface to
the Six-Gun Tuner and your truck that
also increases the Six-Gun’s power
output. With the push of a button, you
can change power levels on-the-fly. It
displays four engine functions at a time,
two of which are user-selectable (over
a dozen to choose from). It will clock
your 0-60 mph, 1 ⁄
8
-mile and 1 ⁄
4
-mile
performance runs, recording peak boost
and EGT values. Performance runs are
automatically stored for later retrieval
with a time-and-date stamp. With the
Banks PowerPDA, you can also scan
and clear OBD II diagnostic codes. It
gives you the endless functionality of a
Palm ® Tungsten ™ E2 PDA, and fits in a
custom docking station using infrared
wireless connectivity.
The Six-Gun Diesel Tuner comes with a
Six-Gun Switch that has six selectable
power levels. The Six-Gun Switch is
included in the Six-Gun Diesel Tuner.
Level 1 is stock. Each additional higher
level adds approximately 20% of the
available power increase.
To prevent damage to the factory
transmission, Banks recommends that
automatic transmission vehicles do not
exceed Level 4 with PowerPDA while
the vehicle is experiencing load (towing,
climbing a steep grade, carrying a load,
etc.).
To use the higher levels of the Six-Gun
Diesel Tuner while towing or climbing,
airflow and exhaust improvements
must be made to lower the exhaust gas
temperature (EGT) entering the turbo.
The EGT should not exceed 1400º F
for more than a few seconds. Elevated
EGTS can damage the turbocharger and
the engine.
ATTENTION! Before proceeding with
these instructions, please carefully
read the DIScLAIMER OF LIABILITY and
LIMITATION OF WARRANTY statement
located on page 2 of this manual.
WARNING: The PDA may be
susceptible to damage as a result
of extended exposure to sunlight,
heat or extreme cold. It is highly
recommended that the PDA be
removed from it’s mounting
location if the vehicle will be
subjected to high concentrations
of sunlight, heat or cold for
an extended period of time.
Gale Banks Engineering is not
responsible for damage to PDAs
resulting from exposure conditions.
