i just installed a banks 6 gun with speedloader in my Reg cab, rest of truck is bone stock, what does it take to run high 13's? and what power level can i kiss the tranny goodbye, honestly i was hoping for a lil more performance than what i got with the six gun alone

TIA,
John S

beating on it in anything over level 2 is going to do damage. rule of thumb is 90 hp over stock is all the tranny will be able to handle for long periods of time. being a reg cab truck the 6 gun MAY get you high 13's but i would say probably mid 14's until you get the tranny done.

basically to run 13's you need a tranny and an EFI Live tune, PPE's Hot tune, i dont think the 6 gun will get you there because of the tranny protection features and it doesnt make enough power.

Low to mid 14's are typically seen with the Banks unit.

i stacked mine with a hypertech on my extended cab short box 2wd, and got high 13's for about 4 passes until i limped the tranny.

I daily drive on level 4 and have done so for the last 5,000 miles. No problems. For those that know I'm going through a rear end replacement right now, it's unrelated. With my lift and big tires and being a crew cab long bed, I still manage a 15.3. Try opeing that exhaust and dropping in a K&N and modify your stock air box to breathe easier.
