Mr Banks Your engineering prowess is second to none. Massive amounts of torque and power with no smoke speaks volumes. I very much enjoy your videos.Thank you
They mentioned 14:1 afr in the Hoonigan video, I almost dropped my coffee from astonishment. First diesel I ever built, I blew up the turbo. But I knew nothing then, was just a kid. Then I read a book about turbocharging a diesel, and here is the same guy that wrote the book all those decades ago, teaching new kids how to do it right! Mr Gale Banks, I salute you! You have saved me from lot of grief and tons of money for doing it right! Still have the book in my shelf.
The hooligans have seen Gales video and the acknowledged it and they're working on a collaboration with Gale in the future. But in their defense they never worked with diesel engines before and they have just teamed up with the wrong guys ☹️
yeah everybody suddenly became an expert in diesel and roasted them for a video they shot months ago. Folk need to chill, send your hate to the tuners not the builders.
@@dr.geraldyaya3203 If thousands of people who got their ASE diesel certificate on TH-cam can spot the issues then Hoonigan should have been able to spot the issues. No hate from me, just trying to explain why, I understand mistakes happen.
The fuel the engine burns is not really a good excuse for apparent engine builders/tuners to use. All engines love cool dence air charge and filling ya dyno room up with exhaust fumes is just mad.
Hello Mr banks. I hope this gets to you. I have a engine you built and worked on from 1978. I would love to bring it to you. It's a big block boat engine. I've been surprised that most people don't know you started with marine engines. Thank you for everything you've done. You're a true pioneer of the industry.
They have always maintained that they never work on diesels and it looks like they picked the wrong people to work with. I mean look at Kens cars they guys that build them are crazy good at making AWD massive horsepower stunt cars but you have to trust the people recommended to you when your working on unfamiliar tech.
Oh, and don't forget about the intercooler that does nothing except slow the air flow. But I guess that can actually help them in the end, because they already know the restrictions caused by it, and will be able to get more power than the dyno run when they have airflow cooling it off. They just won't know how much power because they didn't get any data with realistic dyno numbers.

Finally the new channel I’ve been looking to watch. I respect your knowledge base, ive already learned so much just from watching 2 vids of your channel. Keep up the great work, and Ill be doing my part in sharing, liking and commenting
I can´t explain the amount of information im learning about diesel engines with you Gale, really appreciate you to share your knowlegde to us, you are just THE diesel man. Can´t wait to see the LP5 on the dyno again!
Totally agree, i mean i own a petrol engine, not diesel, i have a loved classic car, chevy nova 1965 with a chevy 230ci engine, i love it, but with 3.8 liters and originally 127hp it's far from being and efficient engine, but i love it anyway. But the best diesel's today have up to 50% efficiency per liter of fuel, when petrol ones can reach 30/35 in the best NEWEST turbo, direct inyection variable cam, the list goes on.. so, Yes, no doubt about it, diesel's were, are and will be more efficient than gasoline engines.
I really need a channel like this but purely for gas engines. I don't know of any other channel that is this indepth and sharing of everything they do.
I've seen even stock alternators melt the insulation off earth wires - some modern vehicles isolate the alternator mounts, to prevent vibration damaging them, and they often need upgrading - especially when high current loads are applied as the alternator will try and match those. With higher outputs, the problem is even greater - I've even used automotive starter cables on occasion to minimise the voltage loss and heating.
It's sad how poorly wired some charging systems come from the factory; I've worked in mobile electronics & it astounds me at times. The ones that really grind my gears are when a reputable builder does a restoration & doesnt even put a ground strap on the block....c'mon guys!
Some predictions guessing the motor will make ~980 with just the cam change EGTs might be a little high. New turbo small AR will produce a touch under 1,100 at similar boost levels. Bigger AR one will make ~1125 at the same or lower manifold boost with 100 degree or so lower EGTs. Guessing the limit on the stock L5P rotating assembly is around 1600hp not sure if the headbolts will allow that level of power though. Was the diameter of the headbolts mentioned yet? Honestly 900+ on a single turbo diesel is simply insane already that used to be compound turbo stuff only.
I've always respected Banks, but thought most of his stuff was over priced hype. This series, as well as the oversized diff pans, renewed my respect. TY for this series! Please keep dispelling this junk "knowledge" out there. 🏁
If you can't get hold of hoonigan directly to help them out with some pointers and tips you may need to get hold of Diesel Dave to get ahold of them. Dan is doing the best he can but he is very much a gas engine guy. Update: it turns out they've been talking for a couple weeks already.
Me too! My internal combustion engines professor was one of my best professors, but the textbook could only do so much, and these videos weren't out yet. This should be considered mandatory extra curricular training for the internal combustion engines class.
I try to learn something from every one of Gale's videos. Today it's at 6:15. "Different a/r turbine housings match shaft speed to a different mass flow range." Now that is an engineer talking! I also love the smooth cast surface finish on those turbine housings. Those must be investment cast.
I would say 'volume', rather than mass, but same principle. Yup, there are several companies using investment cast stainless steel for their turbine housings, nowadays - they sure look cool and don't rust.
The University of Wisconsin is doing a study on engines and emissions. They have study dual fuels such as gasoline port injection with diesels. And also injecting air with the fuel for better atomization. But how does this compare to the old adding propane to a diesel? When I drive a diesel pickup without a Bank's iDash. I feel something important is missing.
Adding air with the fuel would help increase atomization, but compressing air to 30,000+ psi is a very difficult thing to do and requires a lot of energy to do it, which means that you have to get enough energy out of burning the better atomized fuel to make it beneficial to go through all the work, and justify the cost of the equipment. Propane with diesel is a great way to increase efficiency because the propane can be injected into the intake, further cooling the intake air charge, and it atomizes completely and fills the whole cylinder and yet doesn't knock like gasoline would.
Mr. Banks, Sir! Serious question....how durable is the stock 10-speed behind this monster? What can it reliably hold before it barfs it's guts onto the pavement? I LOVE this series you are doing. I have been a diesel nut for a long time, at least since you did the Sidewinder truck. My rig has a 6.2 Detroit....not very conducive to being hotted up much. Maybe in the future, you could have a video dealing with what people on a severely limited budget, like myself, can do to wake up a stock motor that might have the durability of a wet potato chip WITHOUT killing it? Please?
I'm curious what that secretive turbine is. I don't think just a standard radial turbine with modified geometry would be something to keep secret. So I'm thinking there's also an axial turbine in the mix somewhere, either as a dual-shaft turbo or they've somehow combined both radial and axial into a singular turbine. Or I'm just getting my hopes up and it's just a new product that's under some form of embargo until launch.
Awesome. I'am about to get a tune for our mercedes benz sprinter. 2.2l diesel. The point is i cant find some proper stuff. The most "chips" you find are cheap and dont even go into the ecu its insane.
In my goal to maximize the output of the stock fuel settings I'm down too 6cm this has brought my egt down to 850 max from 1150°f. Going to try Nest to 57 or a 5-cm on the hx35 next, at some point I will find the choke point. Before somebody says I've already hit the choke point and that's why my egts are down oh, no sir I'm using a BD diesel qsv 12 vs 6 has no effect on the total output just the amount of time it takes to get there.
@@cencoast_7.340 how do you propose accomplishing this without cracking the seals on the pump. I am 28psi 30-90 IAT. MAD is in control other than running on kill too long( multiple miles over 100 156°f IAT .
The next thing is to cram more clean air into the engine is by adding turbos to the air exchanger for some really dense air into the engine. Just a thought on this but that may really blow the engine up.
I thought it was going to be an 8385 turbo. I would have to dig through their catalog for the 80mm compressor. That's awesome that in less than a week they had two different turbos to your shop. That compressor could probably flow 130lb min.
@@Realtime1501 they do have an 80mm turbo but it usually comes with a different compressor housing. This has the same outline as their 7675 turbo to keep plumbing changes to a minimum.
Hey Mr Gale, can you talk about some of the parameters you can monitor to determine wear or potential upcoming maintenance? I remember something about that mentioned in the old promotional videos about your diesel Hummers. Thank you.
if an ozone machine uses electricity to create o3 and we know that o3 is a very dense gas that also kills bacteria, can o3 be injected into the inter cooler or intake tubing to raise clean air density for more power?
Should I upgrade my intake horn + intercooler to accommodate my tuner making the truck run rich? Or is the tuner gonna make it even more rich regardless? It’s a 5.9 Cummins and there are no O2 sensors so I don’t think there’s any AFR readings…
i am amazed that Precision turbo has not gotten with a company who forges pistons to make forged aluminum cups to protect the turbines on the few turbos they ship without exhaust housings.
that would be massive overkill and expensive - however, I agree they could be better protected - a simple moulded plastic cup would do the job for a few cents.
Kinda curious about ceramic coating the inside of the turbine housing - whether it makes a difference in response because heat energy isn't initially being bled off to heat the housing?
Love gale banks and his thought process he is all about making efficient horsepower .I wish somebody could push a Mazda skyactive engine since it’s more like a diesel than a gasoline engine
Why Precision over Garrett or other offerings that also have water in the CHRA? It seems like those choices would be more in keeping with reliability and longevity, which are is in keeping with your goals, Gale?
Im sure it comes down to sponsorships and who is willing to give the most free parts for the exposure just on the parts hes roached in his free videos is a couple thousand dollars
It may be as simple as he's doing some R&D with them, to benefit them both - did you miss the bit about an experimental turbo'? NO company lets those out the door unless they have a very good reason, and relationship with a trusted tester!
That’s what I always thought, air first. I’m running ported intake with larger intercooler and turbo. With the right tuning I don’t have a need for larger injectors. Never good to see smoke.
Thanks for the info! You are awesome. Maybe you should reach out to Hoonigan and give them a heads up. Dan is a hard working guy that's just trying to do right, like yourself.
Lol. The Hoonigans made crazy Uncle Gale grouchy!! Give those punks a paddlin! Too much smoke? That's a paddlin. Not enough intercooling? That's a paddlin. Sucking dirty air from the dyno room? That's a paddlin. Not enough MAF sensors? Definitely a paddlin!
Do y’all have any catch can or could you give me some tips on building my own? Should I be trying to calculate the dew point and the thermal efficiency if the materials I use for the best performance?
Hey Mr. Banks, love your input and your contribution in the diesel world. I have a '00 7.3 with an oiled s&b cold air and ts 6 position chip. Do you have any recommended semi-budget inter/trans/oil coolers? I'm currently looking at mishimoto for intercooler and trans cooler, and xdp for an oil cooler. I'd love to hear back, thanks for your time!
Would it be possible to have a Turbo and Supercharger in the same unit? If the Turbo was as normal but was also belt-driven off the crank. The belt drive would act like a supercharger and then when the exhaust pressure exceeded the belt speed it would seemlessly take over. With that you could run a BIG turbo while still having the instant spool from the belt pulley. Yes I know there would need to be some things worked out but seems possible? Please tell me I'm an idiot and this can't (or has?) be done....
Actually it has been done, but with gears. EMD locomotive engines have mechanically assisted turbos up to throttle notch 4, then above that the turbo runs completely on exhaust energy.
I am so glad that Banks got on TH-cam. It's awesome seeing how sharp his mind is!
The knowledge, skill and experience that Gale has is unreal
Mr Banks Your engineering prowess is second to none. Massive amounts of torque and power with no smoke speaks volumes. I very much enjoy your videos.Thank you

@@gordowg1wg145 Dude you are in .kat every comment lol, you need a new hobby!

So do you, but then again so do I. 🤣
WINGA DINGA INTENSIFIES !!
Thanks for the info! You are awesome. Maybe you should reach out to Hoonigan and give them a heads up. Dan is a hard working guy that's just trying to do right, like yourself.
Gale have you ever tried scavenging the crank case and pumping those gasses into the exhaust post turbo?
First, the Compound Turbocharger.
Next...
1. Electric Supercharger
2. MW-50 injection
3. Graphite-enriched oil
4. Greasing literally everything
5. New glowplugs, I guess.
Step 6: RP-1 injection 😂
Could you use titanium springs and lifters?
Lol. The Hoonigans made crazy Uncle Gale grouchy!!
Give those punks a paddlin!
Too much smoke? That's a paddlin.
Not enough intercooling? That's a paddlin.
Sucking dirty air from the dyno room? That's a paddlin.
Not enough MAF sensors? Definitely a paddlin!
Do y’all have any catch can or could you give me some tips on building my own? Should I be trying to calculate the dew point and the thermal efficiency if the materials I use for the best performance?
Hoonigan listen up this man is giving yall some free knowledge
When Mr. Banks schools you, you should be honored. He's probably forgot more than most of the internet experts will ever learn.
What is the brass barb used for on the impeller housing on the first turbo?
If I could thumbs up this video twice I would.
Or more!
Gail Banks for president.
Hey Mr. Banks, love your input and your contribution in the diesel world. I have a '00 7.3 with an oiled s&b cold air and ts 6 position chip. Do you have any recommended semi-budget inter/trans/oil coolers? I'm currently looking at mishimoto for intercooler and trans cooler, and xdp for an oil cooler. I'd love to hear back, thanks for your time!
How did you get that 8085 on HP compresor cover ?????
You had me at "big ass"...
Would it be possible to have a Turbo and Supercharger in the same unit? If the Turbo was as normal but was also belt-driven off the crank. The belt drive would act like a supercharger and then when the exhaust pressure exceeded the belt speed it would seemlessly take over. With that you could run a BIG turbo while still having the instant spool from the belt pulley. Yes I know there would need to be some things worked out but seems possible? Please tell me I'm an idiot and this can't (or has?) be done....
Actually it has been done, but with gears. EMD locomotive engines have mechanically assisted turbos up to throttle notch 4, then above that the turbo runs completely on exhaust energy.
would love to see a colab video where banks power shop builds an engine for hoonigan
Billet Titanium compressor impeller?? and prototype blade profile?
When will we see the results from your radiator and intercooler tests vs other name brands? love the vids
Excellent!
