Here's a sound clip of the Banks exhaust kit with no muffler. I had to edit it into a smaller file to upload and it doesn't sound as deep now. Like BoostN indicated above it's not a huge difference at idle but it's something at higher RPMs. It's much easier to service the fuel filter now.

Have fun. I did notice a drop in coolant and oil temps but I did also remove a lot of dust and bug guts from the front of my truck when installing the grill. There are quick connect snaps along the lower section of the grill so be careful and watch a video before removing it. It's really...

Very helpful... Thank you. I was just talking to the wife about this type of thing.

I'll need to call the shop Monday to verify. The service tech never asked if my EGR was leaking when I scheduled the recal work. Feeling stupid as my EGR isn't leaking currently and scheduling the EGR recall work seemed to easy... I'll ask about the W-58 recall as well... If you turn off the...

Can you just replace the hose material for the turbo coolent line and re use the other parts ? Karl

They post the dyno chart at the end of the video. The turbo looks to spool up at a lower rpm and they claim lower EGR temps. Still trying to find another company that would make one. ...

Blackhaze in Canada makes a kit for the ED. 3,700 for just the turbo and electronic blow off valve.

Like that grill. It looks mean...
