Alright group, I've got a line on an older banks turbo. I've searched the archives here a bit and generally like what I hear.
Questions: what kind of extra power do they give? I spend 99% of my time commuting on a state highway with lots of stop lights ( get up to 50mph, then a mile later come to a stop, repeat, etc.) Commute is 10 miles each way.
What I gather of the old banks is that they are slow spoolers, only put out 8-10 psi of boost. If thats true, then that's perfect, as I don't wanna be pulling the heads for a blown head gasket on this 7.3L If I don't have to. I'm not looking for a screamer. Mainly, I'm looking for a turbo to help me maintain speed on hills on the interstate on all the road trips I do. Pulling is something I do maybe 5 times a year, so I'm not concerned about that. Hope that makes sense, basically I'm looking at a good deal from a guy with one, and I let it go to my head that I might want it
