Test Session Report

Banks likes to pull intake air off the nose. It does two really good things. First, it takes air from a high pressure area so the turbo gets to start compressing slightly pressurized air. Second, it moves mass out of the way of the vehicle so it doesn't have to waste power pushing through it.
