Banks 325hp?

Since when did banks sell a six gun speedloader that made an extra 325 horsepower. That doesnt sound like safe horse power! Someone on ebay is starting the bid at 400. The item number is 150179309458. I might get that

They're stupid. Probably more like 325 to the wheels.

Wow, 325hp with just pressure and timming, I can't imagine what that would do to things if it were true...

I sent the guy a message and told him he might want to rethink his product description, then included the link to the banks page about the six gun with speed loader for the common rail showing a 126hp increase. I hate it when people write stuff that isn't true. It reminds me of a diesel mag (can't remember which one) that had a newer 7.3 with all kinds of lift and nice bling stuff....it listed performance mods as exhaust, intake, and an edge juice.....then where it said Estimated HP to the wheels they printed "In excess of 500" I don't see how that got past the editor.....an edge juice isn't even gonna get 500 at the crank, maybe not even 400 on a 7.3.

It makes me wonder if he really thinks he has an extra 325 hp? He wouldnt know what to put if he had a bullydog or smarty, probally add 800 more horsepower.

He probably got it confused with the engine rating. I'm guessing its supposed to go on an 04.5+.

I think he changed his advertising after you told him that.
