I contacted BANKS and they have already sent me information.
They are suggesting a BANKS "PowerPack" system. They didn't tell me how much is costs, (or I don't remember the discussion) but said that it should run about $750.00 to have installed. Did you install your's yourself? I'm sure I could, but I'm not going to. If I can't find someone I trust to install it, I probably won't do it at all. I really do like the idea of 85 extra HP and 118 lb-ft though. That might make enough of a difference. I thought we were originally talking about the "Stinger." This might be OK, but I'd sure hate to install it and find I'm still not satisfied.
The only thing I'm not sure about is their suggestion of the BANK's TransCommand. I'm not sure of the "return" on this investment. My transmission shifts pretty well as it is. I'm not sure I really want it shifting any harder than it already does. Part of their advertisment (at least a sheet I have) seems to say it's required on the PowerPack system on my engine if I have an E40D/4R100 automatic transmission. I'm checking into which transmission I have.
Again thank you for the information. I really don't want to trade this RV. It has everything I want until I retire except for enough power. This certainly might be an option.
