Someone metioned a trick to gain 50hp on bottom end for free anyone know how to do this?

Yes.





Get a "EDGE" sticker and apply it to the lower left corner of your rear window and then put a "BANKS" sticker in the lower right corner. Dont forget to add a "AFE" sticker to balance things out.

That would be removing the muffler bearing. Ask Camstyn, I think he has a few of these mods.


On a seriuos note I have never heard of what you mentioned.

You will need more then one Banks stickerhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif or cut the Juice one in half and discard the bigger halfhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif


Other wise, you will be spinning in circles all the timehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clown.gifEdited by: hdmax

Nice picture of the muffler bearing.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif

nassdmax has too much spare time.

Actually GM in their cost cutting methods uses Muffler Bushings instead of bearings. So if you change the bushings to bearings you will actually gain a bit of HP. Probably not 50hp but I am sure you will see 25-35hp. Less friction = more hp. And well all know bearings are better then bushings. http://dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif

Man oh man.......

No I have not heard of any free mods that will provide anything near 50Hp....maybe a couple ponies by swiss cheesing the air box but thats it.

Swiss cheese the stock airbox, remove the intake resonator and plug hole on tube, replace the muffler with a straight pipe, everything else costs money.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif

Above all, do not forget to remove winter air from tires and replace with summer air. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif Welcome.

I recall the old 12 valve cummins had free hp by the old slide the fuel plate forward.


No such luck with these more modern higher tech machines. Having said that, the cost for one hp increase is still relatively reasonable with 125hp boxes costing $600 or so. That’s only $4.8 per hp. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cool.gifEdited by: Ray403Dmax

Roflol!! Glad to see you have a sense of humor!


I gotta say, it was all worth it for that muffler bearing picture!! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clown.gifhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Clap.gif





Seriously now, Cut out the muffler and Cat and straight pipe it and you maybe see an improvement you can feel....


Not free, but cheap.

No no, you have to 'visualize' the Banks sticker as in exhaust not electronics! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Tongue.gif

did you try and block off the waste gate. you will gain a little power down low in the lower RPMs but lose a few ponys on the top end. Good luck trying to keep up to those LB7s there a fast bitch when there on juice.....LOL
