Banks is a good system, but over priced due to the name, but as well as the warentee that they do stand behined. If you are mechanical inclined, it can be done cheaper. My ISB in my Dodge shows 375 Hp & 850 torque. (see my above post) I am running a HX-40 turbo, the down pipe is 4" going into a 5" 51" long truck muffler, advanced timing, #6 TST plate moved mid way, star turned in towards motor, 3000 RPM springs installed & 330 Marine injectors. (before I hear about my injectors, yes I wish to change them later). I do not blow a lot of smoke taking off. Engines are never set at factory to it's potentional due to warentee. Next, Install a good size "Trans cooler" as most of the time you get slippage from your trans, due to the fluid foaming from heat. Foam is air in the oil (boiling effect). It can not hydraulically compress the oil with air in it. There are a lot of threads out there regarding "Dodge Cummins" and there are some wild Cummins running twin turbo's, (with head modified){head studed & "O" Ringed}, I didn't go that far though. If you have a Cummins Engine 5.9 0r 8.3L, a lot can be done fairly easy and cheap without going wild.
My 2 cents!!
