Gale Banks Engineering is a recognized world leader in engine tuning. They have become that leader by consistent innovation, testing, and improvement. Now you can take advantage of their performance tuning experience and innovation with the all new Derringer Tuner for the 3.0L EcoDiesel. The Derringer is a plug-and-play microcomputer designed for easy installation. It’s waterproof for convenient under hood mounting. Unlike the fixed tuning used by other manufacturers, the Derringer calibration is continuously adjusting to provide you the peak possible performance under every driving condition. By utilizing the power of the OBD-II data, the tuner intelligently fine-tunes its calibration on the fly without you having to change its power level.
Derringer has three switched settings: Stock, Plus and Sport. Sport produces Best in Class performance that knocks you back in your seat. The Plus setting is for work use and has great mid-range feel. When running Plus while pulling a trailer, your on ramp merging speeds and passing times are greatly improved.
The Derringer’s electronics are molded into a waterproof connector, which is easily concealed and communicates using B-Bus (Banks Bus) with the iDash 1.8 Super Gauge/Control Center. The Derringer connects in line with the FRP (fuel rail pressure) and TMAP (intake manifold air temperature and pressure) sensors. But, unlike others it is also in line with the EGT (exhaust gas temperature) sensor and OBDII diagnostic bus connector. A CAN (controller area network) transceiver chip communicates with OBD or B-Bus allowing the Derringer microprocessors to talk with the vehicle. And, Derringer’s special coolant temp watchdog prevents power addition when the engine is too cold or overheated. Maximum safe power is all automatic with a Derringer, you just choose your setting.
