bypass plug is installed on the two-pin
connector attached to the backside of
the Banks Bullet.
-If your vehicle has a Banks DynaFact
EGT probe installed, please skip to

INSTALLATION
1. The thermocouple monitors
gases entering the turbocharger
at the turbine housing. Installation
be drilled near the manifold outlet.
It is recommended that the manifold
be removed from the engine to
thoroughly clean out all metal chips
from drilling. All metal shavings must
be cleaned from the manifold to avoid
turbine wheel damage and possible
interference with the turbocharger’s
variable geometry turbine stage.
2.
Pressure Sensor tap located at the
front of the driver side manifold. The
pressure tap must be removed by
using a
9
⁄16” open-end wrench to hold
tube using a
5
⁄8” open-end wrench.
The fitting is shown in Figure 1.
NOTE: Failure to hold the fitting
stationary will damage the tube upon
removal.

manifold.
4. Drill a
7
⁄16” hole in the driver side
shown in Figure 2.
5. Tap the hole for a
1
⁄4” NPT thread.
Check the thread depth as you tap
by periodically removing the tap and
screwing the pipe coupling into the
tapped hole. The coupling should
1
⁄2 turns hand tight. Do
not install the probe in place at this
time.
CAUTION: Running the tap too
deeply can prevent the pipe fitting
from properly sealing.
6. Remove the NPT fitting from the
thermocouple and install it on the
lubricant on the threads and torque to
14–16 lb-ft.
