I am looking for a Banks Turbo for the 6.2 diesel. I am located in Des Moines, Iowa.
Thanks for looking.

Oh yea, that would be something that I forgot to mention.

1991 CHEVROLET G30 Carpenter Mini Bus

Currently I haul around sound equipment for church events. It runs down the road 65/70 easy fully loaded with equipment.

What I have in mind for a second job for it is being a tow rig for my Toyota 4x4 truck.

A friend who wheels with me has a dodge tow rig with a Banks, that's where I got the idea for mine because he sure likes his.

The Dodge was turbocharged from factory. Without knowing the preticulars on what model it could be any number of components that were added to his truck from Banks.

Banks makes an upgraded turbine housing for the turbo, exhaust system, computer programmer (for electronic cummins 98+), intercooler, air intake, etc...

Banks made a complete turbo system for the 6.2, which is a naturally aspirated diesel (non turbo).

The turbo system was everything; the turbo, manifold, intakes, air cleaner box, exhaust system.

Thanks for the specifics on the vehicle though. You've got a G30 chassis, which is a van. Banks did make a kit that fit the van, but it was discontinued somewhere in the mid 90's. The only thing you'll find now is the C/K truck turbo system, which I don't believe is going to fit or work in the van.

You'll likely be able to get some more power out of the 6.2 non-turbo though to pull a toyota on a trailer. Do some searching in the 6.2L forum for great info. You can also post there for more information on getting more pulling power out of the 6.2L.
