: Banks PDA?
pooch 12-30-2007, 08:01 PM I was wondering if anyone knows what the docking station and the PDA would cost? My buddy is selling me his Banks Six Gun With Speed Loader but he didn't get the PDA with it. i realy would like to ability to check DTCs and use it for gauges. Thanks
05 duramax 12-30-2007, 08:05 PM I think it is around $300, just for the docking station and $600 for both.Call banks first with A # on the tuner, some of the older ones won't work with the pda.
pooch 12-30-2007, 10:51 PM Well thats not too bad.
But has anyone on here done this? i mean added the PDA after they got there six gun?
dunecrazy 12-31-2007, 03:16 PM I ran the SixGun with the switch for about six months and then went to the PDA, so you shouldn't have any problems. You can get the Palm Tungsten E2(the same PDA that Banks sells) at most electronics stores(Best Buy,CompUSA,etc) for about $200, even less on Ebay. The docking station comes either with the thermocouple(about $350) or without(about $300).
pooch 12-31-2007, 03:58 PM cool thanks
THE TECH 12-31-2007, 07:45 PM Just call Banks first to verify that your version will work with the PDA before you go out and buy it.
pooch 12-31-2007, 09:35 PM well ends up that my buddy sold it with his truck. Boo-hist!! but o well.
Im still looking for the setup. found a guy on ebay that would sell me the Six gun with the docking station for $890. New. Not to shabby.
axlenut 01-02-2008, 03:35 AM The PDA is also available from New Egg @ www.newegg.com PalmOne Tungsten E2 is $179.99 + $5.84 for 3 day shipping. I buy all my computer parts and stuff from New Egg they are on the ball.

Send me a PM...I can do better:D
russell.russell 01-04-2008, 11:13 AM The docking station for the Pda is about 280$. It costs a little more because it has the programming for the pda. The Pda you can get from best buy for what ever wall mart sells it for -make them price match, I think it was around 150$ w/ the 2 yr warranty.
Ive had mine for appx 2 mo and cant keep from playing w/ it - you will love it. Good luck
CRASHNBURN 01-04-2008, 01:22 PM Get the universal suction cupmount with it instead the the dash mounted one. It costs a little more, but it is so nice & you can remove it with no dealer knowing. You like it.
TandC 01-08-2008, 10:18 AM Don't Buy any Banks Products on EBAY,The product(s) sold on EBAY (NEW) are unauthorized Sales and will NOT have any warranty or support from BANKS.

What did you have to do to make the TX fit? i might be interested in upgrading my PDA if its not too difficult. Is the software the same?
pooch 01-18-2008, 09:52 AM so i ended up getting just the sixgun chip for $400, new. now im just waiting to see if MAX4X4 wants to sell his craddle and egt sensor. I also already have a palm TX, so im sett there.

If its used Make Sure it has Been Cleared of the prior vehicle History,Moving from Vehicle to vehicle can be trouble some, also if EGT sensor/probe was install earlier it will not function without.
pooch 01-18-2008, 10:50 AM good to know. i asked and they said they bought it for there dad and he never put it in. so.... i guess i'll see.
