At Banks Power performance has always been much more than an 11-letter, three syllable
word. In fact if there could be a big one-word caption hanging in the sky over the Banks buildings in Azusa, California it would simply
read: PERFORMANCE.
For us, performance starts with the first spark of an idea for a new product, the sensing of a need
followed by designing, engineering, testing, and re-testing until its performance meets or exceeds
Banks Standards, and those are the toughest canons of true all-around performance there are.
Banks has a proven high-performance track record that reaches back over half a century, a level-headed
understanding of the present, and a grasp of what's going to be needed in the future like no other company
in its field.
And, setting numerous national and international diesel speed records is just the icing, just the title
page. The real benefit of that activity to Banks customers is the kind of R&D diesel technology that can
only be had in the hard-fought, no-prisoners world of open motorsports performance. We run what we build
harder, faster, and longer than any Banks customer would ever even think about doing.
From that crucible comes the fire; we'll get to the ice next...
After we've "tested" the stuffings out of any new products on the track, we then beat the
living heck out of them in the "lab". We do it in real vehicles, under real world
driving conditions and in things like our environmental "enclosure*", that looks
like a cross between a giant microwave oven and something that Doctor No was trying to
use to split James Bond in two the hard way. This diabolical machine has a range of -70
below zero to +170 degrees Celsius (water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100!).
Our test engineers stick every electrical component that Banks makes into that thing and hit the "MAIM"
switch. If they work after being flash frozen and deep fried, then they test them some more.
We make the best-working, toughest diesel performance stuff in the business, and we prove it (to
ourselves) every day!
As we hope you're thinking right about now: At Banks, our engineers and technicians really do things "the
hard way" so our customers don't have to.
That's real "performance", and that's what built in to every Banks diesel product. Whether the performance
our customers seek is better mileage, better acceleration up hills, onto busy highways, for towing, or
just for the fun of it.
For more than 20 years now, Banks has been the leader in light truck, SUV, and motorhome diesel
performance. We are very proud of what we've accomplished and very excited about what's coming next.
*most of the Banks engineers who use it just refer to it as "the torture chamber".
