Sounds like a hot rod with a turbo

turn your speakers up. I can hear the injection pretty clearly.

im just never going to understand this thing. is the fueling run by boost instead of the other way around. it seems like they get boost before the fueling hits. this fueling is perfect!!!

Banks is catching flack for the website saying "First into the 7's" on the main page. A couple of rails were actually "first into the 7's" followed by Banks being 3rd into the 7's and first with a "pickup bodied" drag vehicle.

Did you see the BankSpeed display at SEMA ?
I think someone twisted the Dragons tail. Banks is releasing all their winning stuff from balanced engine rotating assemblys to cams and kits to high-swirl racing heads to cast racing intake manifolds and complete dyno'ed racing engines. They are going low buck to high buck...better hide your smokers.
And...there's nothing low buck about a 10 second diesel truck...cracker pleeeze. EOM
that thing doesnt even sound like a diesel...is it an alcohol burner??

Nope. #2 diesel fuel and nitrous injection.

Maybe the rails were in the 7's before us, but they are much lower in weight. We are actually right in saying that we are the first truck in the 7's. If we'd put that power that we're putting to the ground in the S-10 in a rail we'd be in the low sevens... maybe in the 6's.
Turbopops, thanks for the excited point of view... I just need to ask you to not be so pushy with the other folks. Like I've said before, this is a place to check out what we're doing... not pick fights.
