Nice numbers!

 

[IdahoRob]

Posted this in case it may help some people that are in the market for L5P products, some real numbers to make a choice from.

 

[Hambone]

Thanks Rob
Side note what did you do to fit 35s?
Lift or just fender mod?

 

[rcr1978]

Looks like the aftermarket bolt on shit is just that
Guess the Banks tuner is the low cost way to go for a decent gain.

Thats exactly what I was thinking. Probably was pissed all that work and money for one HP gain :spit:

Were all trucks broken in? Strange my dads L5P with the afe went faster than an L5P with a banks on it.

 

[IdahoRob]

Yes, all over 15k miles. What did your Dad's truck run in the 1/4mile? I've yet to see an AFE tuned L5P at the local track beat my heavy ass lifted truck ETs.

i dont like reading this.... its filling my head with bad things :rofl:

 

[Bdsankey]

Thanks for the info Rob! Honesty kind of sad how little benefit the customers truck with a modded inlet gave but I'm wondering if that has to do with the Derringer not really pushing the stock turbo/air system very hard or if there is really no major benefit on the L5P platform.

I believe someone dynoed it and picked up 25hp I forget the thread it’s in. But that was a max effort tune

Deleted I believe, not showing any HP gain on my dyno with two different trucks running emissions. I like testing stuff when i have no "skin" in the game.

Nice job Rob! Keep it up!:thumb:

It was deleted. Are you seeing better spool with the inlet?

 

[Mike L.]

Any of these trucks running a dummy solenoid or TCM tuning? Remember that the TCM will pull power when it senses any trans slip. The solenoid will give it back for a while till the clutches burn.

 

[IdahoRob]

Good point Mike, no all the trucks have stock tcm and VB.

X2...

Good info Rob.

I put the Banks on my 18 GMC today also running 35s, really woke up the low throttle response.

 

[S Phinney]

AG module woke up my 18 truck. Dyno numbers show 435 and 910 on torque. Stock everything other than module. Just put a Banks I take on this past week. I needed a filter so I got one that I can clean. Throttle seems better after I take doesn’t seem to feel much different other than touch of the throttle.
