Gale Banks on Turbos, Superchargers and NOS

Here’s an edited down segment of an old episode of “American Muscle Car” on RAM AIR that showed on the Speed Network back in ’07. Both the show and the network are gone, but the info in this piece is still great. I mean… turbos, superchargers, NOS… come on? Enjoy!

Exactly why I will always have a Diesel, lovin my 7.3 and 24V Cummins....

[@belowpovertylineminority]

You’re living the dream brother

[@davidscott5903]

It was beautiful to hear Gale banks say there's nothing like a diesel. Now if I could just get him to say that there's nothing like a super critical steam injected diesel.

How can I get a pulley like the on at 3:54?

[@EricFixalot]

That’s called a gilmer drive belt, typically they’re used for superchargers but there are kits to convert your normal serpentine belt.

[@michaelcuff5780]

Turbos are better! Compound turbos!

[@2JZLS]

Why did Koenigsegg patent all of his turbine innovations? What about the future of turbo's? Obviously you don't want your competitors stealing tech, but do you think your money is worth more than turbo's to this world? Come on Chris, your forcing a turbine design revolution, which will only force you to redesign aswell, only this time you'll be second...

[@RedfishCarolina]

Perhaps because he was the one that forked out the money and effort to do something that everyone else had dismissed?

[@Realtime1501]

Koenigsegg doesn't have the partnerships Banks or any other American company has he is on his own and don't have any partnerships or contracts to prop up his company it's just Koenigsegg doing Koenigsegg nothing else
