Looks perfect bro! Good job
Ricardo Batres thank you bro! It’s a really cool little unit
Good thing you got that Regen gauge ! Whoo!
I subbed for the Benchmade bailout! Haha Great videos on the truck man!
All About EDC thank you! I love that knife so much that i actually have 3 of them 😂
@@dirtyclouds6445 Best pocket knife you can buy! Good taste
@@raford250 thank you good sir 😎
I actually picked up a 2021 Chevy RST with the LM2 and found the banks pedal monster, and decided to purchase that along with the super gauge. Looking forward to getting it installed. I like the fact that this shows you when the vehicle is in regen. To be honest, my truck is so new with 113 miles on it that I've not had a regen process yet, so I simply cannot tell me if it's going to tell me in the display or not in this RST. I also have a 2019 Mercedes Sprinter, and while it does not tell me when it's going into Regen, I do have a menu in the display that I can go to and it'll show me the current load on the PDF and if it's in clean mode or not. I wish these vehicles would just pop a little display telling you that you're in a regen cycle. And maybe leave a little idiot light lit until the cycle is complete.
100% agree with you! How hard is it to put a dummy light that notifies us what’s going on with the regen process? Lol mine has never shown me that’s it’s actively doing regen which is exactly why i purchased this bundle here (i personally regret getting the pedal monster though as i never use it lol) congrats on your new truck!!
Looks like a nice set up !
Trash Panda Productions thank you bro!
Great camera work, good video.
Thank you so much! I appreciate that 🙏
I've had the same setup for about a month on my 3.0 Sierra. The fun has worn off a little bit, but still worth it in my opinion. You may have found it by now, but you can also monitor your DPF full percentage to know how close you are getting to a regen. I am currently using a 7 gauge layout and running the pedal monster in sport mode at 5 bars and will back it down when in traffic.
Max Heaslett yeah i actually go to the 7 layout page on this video and include the dpf percentage, But for some reason it’s stayed at 0% even till now. Is that normal? I’m currently trying dpf rg instead of pm1
instablaster
Can you manually kick off a regen too? Or just know when it’s coming or actively doing it?
@@NickBondar12that is what I’m wondering
@@adonijahtaylor547 I ended up figuring it out on mine. Gotta configure the gauge so that it knows specifically that you have an LM2 or LZ0 3.0 engine. Then it’s in the diagnostics section. “Enable active regen”. Works like a charm. Will only let you do it if soot is at 90% or above. Nice to have control though.
Great video!
All The Things thank you 🙏
So, it looked to me like the banks tune started with stock and then went up in performance. Does the banks address getting maximum fuel mileage or is it all about power?
really nice video, thanks!
Thank you!
Knowing temps are fun, but since you can't do anything about them either way....what's the use? It's gonna regen when it's gonna regen. One of the reasons many of these trucks are having issues with too short of a period between regens is because owners are using EXPENSIVE DEF with additives never intended to be used. Buy the CHEAPEST DEF from Wally world and you'll be MUCH better off. It's ONLY supposed to contain urea and water. Anything else just clogs the filter. This is coming from a 25 year GMC master tech. My AT4 doesn't regen often at all...because I use the cheap blue jug. NOT that "Platinum" crap...
What brand do you use ? Just curious cause I’d like to order some online but after reading your comment I want to make sure I get the right stuff !
So... I should just start pissing in jugs and adding water. Brilliant!
Awesome truck , what is the tire and wheel set up
Oh man I need to order this when my truck comes in!
jontg429 I’m loving it so far! It was super easy to install and man did it help a lot to understand my truck more
Duder thanks for the video! Got mine today and installing tomorrow! Have you installed any of the new cold air intake or exhaust? Asking for a friend...
No problem! I have not yet but once i can find any then i will 😁
The pedal moister don’t connect to the OBD ? How is the mpg now ? Better or worse ?
Great video sir I would like to know what are your thoughts on this 3.0 diesel? As far as performance and maintenance And durability? Thank you for any help that you can offer
Ive had 5 LS trucks / cars and I wish this would have been around a long time ago. Its so smooth, you don't need to scream the engine to feel the power. And it tows a lot better with the torque. MPGs towing are almost double.
like the video i would just make sure you talk about how it feels actually driving and your feedback on "is it worth it". its cool to see menu's but i did not learn much
Tristan Hipps hey thank you for the constructive criticism! I appreciate you taking the time to help me, since I’m new, this honestly helps a lot and i will get better! Thank you!
@@dirtyclouds6445 i cant wait for more videos!
Tristan Hipps thank you for the support 🙏
Cool vid, just a heads up I have the pedal commander and the dealer said it will void the warranty because it changes the voltage in the pedal. I took it in for an oil change courtesy of the dealer and I had to remove it, they did not notice anything. Wish I went with banks
Dang man! I'm sorry to hear that! companies should inform us if the product they're selling us will void our vehicles warranty. I'm glad you at least caught it and removed it before the dealer saw it! I need to make a few update videos to be honest but life and 4 kids has been driving me nuts!
a 6 month update would be nice. Thanks
Can u put a link for the datamonster and the window mount
Does anybody know what kind of horsepower gains you can look to gain out of this for the 3.0 Duramax
You don't get power gains with the Pedal Monster. What you get is faster throttle response because it removes the throttle lag that manufacturers build into today's electronically controlled engines.
Is anyone working on an actual performance tune? Or has GM my it impossible under their engine management software?
Do you know if this voids any warranty ? Or if the system throws codes to the computer? I was thinking about getting one of these set ups but the dude at the dealer said it could void. A warranty
To my knowledge the data monster doesn’t void warranty because it just ready your vehicles stats that’s it. The pedal monster shouldn’t either because it doesn’t tune the ecu but you should ask your dealer to be safe
How is the 10 speed transmission holding up? Lots of people are having major issues with them.
Honestly mine so far has been perfect but if anything changes i will definitely post a video about it, i just haven’t had any issues with my truck so far
Can you do a review of the pedal monster. Thanks
Yes of course i can! Is there anything specific you would like me to go over?
@@dirtyclouds6445 just impression and any impacts on MPG, which I’m sure will happen since it manipulates the throttle input signal to the ECU
@@Kevin_67_RS ok no worries 💪 I will film it today 🙃
Great video! So glad I had this video pop up in my feed. I just purchased a obd2 bluetooth just so I could see my regen and boost but it requires your cell phone and app. This is much more convenient and practical. Im looking to purchase this exact setup for my 3.0 duramax. If it's not a bother, could I get the full parts list/numbers so I buy the correct setup? Thanks again for the video! I subscribed so I could follow your future updates.
Thank you brotha i appreciate that so much🙏
Here is the link to the package i purchased (if it doesn’t work for you let me know but i tested it and it took me right to the package i purchased)

If i was you i would shop around though on banks website because they have other options and personally for me the pedal monster was a waist of money, it works exactly as it’s supposed to but i like how my truck accelerates from factory lol so you could save a few hundred bucks by just buying the data monster
You will also need this pod mount if you want to mount it on the windshield like mine

Hey bro is this a power adder (HP/TQ) aka Tuner or just data info.
It is just for data info and the pedal monster itself just alters the feel and reaction time of the throttle (makes it feel like it’s been tuned) lol i mainly got it to notify me when my trucks doing a regen and it’s worked great for me so far
Hey bro, nice set up didnt know about a pedal monster. Thanks. Can you input your tire size on the idash to recalibrate the speedometer on your truck? With your tire being 33's did it effect your readings on mph and mpg? Thank bro
Curious as well
Thank you bro! I haven’t tried it yet but from what i read about it, yes you can recalibrate your speedometer and have it set up right with your tire size. About the mpg, yes for example my truck will say I’m getting 21mpg but I’m really getting 21.7 or 22mpg as far as my speedometer it is only about 1 or 2 mph off (i think it’s 1 to be honest)
@@dirtyclouds6445 What's going on with the people who say they're getting over 30mpg?
@@bradh6185 I just finished a 2000 mile trip with mine and averaged 29MPG, my best 400 mile avg was 30.6. You need perfect conditions, 68mph, to stay over 30MPG for any real duration of time
@@cjwright1960 Thanks.
Does it give you any more power on that 3.0 duramax
no sir it only alters the throttle response and imput
Does the boost pressure show it in psi?
Yes it does!!
Does the gauge tell you what gear the transmission is in?
Mike A yes it can do that! I’ve tried it and learned a lot more about my truck
Dirty Clouds thanks! I want one but my 3.0 has been in the shop for 17 days with GM trying to figure out what is wrong with the transmission.
Mike A they better stop pulling your chain. These transmissions have a great record so far in every vehicle they e been put into. If they can handle the power of a twin turbo Ford raptor they can definitely handle the power of this 3.0 duramax. Gm needs to just replace your transmission already!
These pedal tuners just make the throttle push down farther than your actually pushing it
Is there a delete kit out there for these trucks yet
To my knowledge yes you can delete the truck but in Cali there’s currently no CARB legal tunes for the delete 🤦🏻♂️
Will it turn off the speed limiter?
I’ve read that you can but i haven’t tried. I do know for sure that you can correct the speedometer with it if you put bigger wheels
I thought the Duramax 3.0 was supposed to have good throttle response and pedal feel right from the factory.
It does it actually has amazing throttle response, my pedal monster was only used for one day (complete waste of money i know) but i definitely love the data monster and for some people who may enjoy insane pedal input then the pedal monster is for them lol
My 2020 Sierra has perfect throttle response as is.
@@dirtyclouds6445 why for only 1 day?
@@2cthetruth because the factory throttle response is set perfectly so i didn’t need the pedal monster, to this day i still only use the data monster and absolutely love it
what kind of wheels u got on that❔those r fly man .... what size❔
Thank you! They are made by American outlaw wheels, they’re called maverick. Mine are 20’s with 33 inch mud terrains
Checkout block8head, he make integrated gauge pods for our trucks. I use one in my 2020 High Country 3.0 Duramax.
Will that void your warranty? I'd like to know that information so be nice to get
To my knowledge, no it doesn’t void any warranty because it doesn’t tune your ecu!
@@dirtyclouds6445 awesome. I didn't think it did tune it because you didn't say anything about it. Thanks for the response.
@@Tremor-xu8qo anytime! thank you for taking the time to ask your question. If there’s anything you’d like to know, please feel free to ask!
@@dirtyclouds6445 I haven't seen an update video on it. How is it? Worth it and do you like it?
Will this allow me to bypass the blue def requirement lol?
Oh that would be amazing! but no it does not. I think the best thing to do would be to just fully delete the truck honestly 🤣
@@dirtyclouds6445 dam. I was trying to find a less invasive way
@@nikkcarroll9382 yeah i get you but good news is i am staying alert and open minded to any mods coming available and i will post about them once there is something out for this truck
It takes a lot for some to feel likeable.
Can you monitor engine oil temp?
Yes you sure can!! It’s a pretty awesome unit
@@dirtyclouds6445 great, I like to drive conservatively until the temp comes up. I've had a 3.0 Sierra for 2 weeks and was surprised that I couldn't find a way to view that in the gauge cluster. Do you plan on posting an update going over the pedal monster and anything else with the Banks stuff?
@@eckseleven1 yes i actually filmed the video already of my review on the data monster combo but i have 3 other videos I’m editing lol I’m still learning how to edit better so it takes me a little while, plus i have 3 kids and my wife is currently pregnant but i will have the videos up soon!! I’ll get faster with time and more practice.
@@dirtyclouds6445 no worries! I know the struggle with wife and kids and now remote schooling :(. I look forward to your updates on this mod and anything else!
@@eckseleven1 thank you so much 🙏 remote schooling is driving my kids insane 🤦🏻♂️ it is really hard for them and they’re having a lot harder of a time to get homework done while also not having the chance to be a child and play with friends. We hope all this ends soon and things hopefully go back to normal.
LFG had horrible trouble with his truck to start off. I only watch his videos occasionally so I don’t know how it all turned out for him.
He did, that’s true! He got it replaced for a brand new one free of charge and to my knowledge he hasn’t had issues since
Hi Buddy, cool video. From what I was told, any screen will show you when Regen kicks in. That way you don't have to waste space on the guage. Is that not the case?
You mean on the actual data monster? Or the trucks gauge cluster?
@@dirtyclouds6445 Data Monster. Banks said you get regen alerts on all screens.
@@HabibiGolf oh i personally had to put regen in a slot on my gauge to be Able to see when it’s happening but maybe there’s a way for it to work without taking up a slot I’m not sure but now I’m curious so i will try it out!
Does it cancel your warranty
No because you’re not altering the Ecu in any way
Whats the wheel setup on her?
Rims are American outlaws, tires are Mickey Thomson deegan 38 😁
Looks very good, i will definitely keep them in mind if I ever manage to acquire my dream truck.
I’m in the market for a 3.0 and I’ve never owned a diesel. Excuse my dumb question but what exactly is a regen and how does it affect the truck when it’s doing it?
First of all this is not a dumb question! Secondly, regen is more emissions control thanks to California. Basically it uses a particulate filter to catch any soot your engine puts out and then once it’s full the trucks computer will trigger “regen” witch uses way more fuel to dump down the exhaust towards your filter and heats it up to burn off all the soot that it’s caught. In my opinion it’s super dumb, worse for the environment and horrible for your truck. If you don’t allow it to complete its regen process for a long period of time then the truck will go into limp mode (I’ve never had this issue) and then you’d have to take it to the dealer for them to force the regen process! The good thing with the new 3.0 duramax is that it’s regen process is only 10 miles and it’s done so it’s really fast actually 😃
@@dirtyclouds6445 thx for the reply! I understand now, I’m excited to be getting into one of these. I was hoping that the trail boss would have a 3.0 available for 2021 but I see it’s not
@@supremo1234 no worries brotha. I think it you get the rst with the z71 package you will love it! (Same as mine lol)
@@dirtyclouds6445 yeah yours is super legit. What leveling kit did u go with

I will very soon! I just need to get my new born son home and settled first but yes very soon hopefully 🙏
Mine has regened 27 times in 4900 miles. That's insane. I can't get more than 24 mpg.
Woah that is insane!! When my truck was completely stock I was getting 30 mpg super easily. I even have a video towing over 7k pounds and i averaged almost 17mpg 😮. I know if you drive rough it will regen more and obviously get poor fuel economy but I’m not sure that’s your problem. You may need to take the truck to the dealer and have it checked out
@@dirtyclouds6445 I have taken it to the dealer may times. GM is saying it works as designed.
@@JohnDoe-nz6bk do you drive it super rough? Fast acceleration, drive around 80 on the highway?
@@dirtyclouds6445 not super rough. 90% highway driving and average 70-75 mph.
@@dirtyclouds6445 the first week I had it, I got over 30mpg. Then at a 146 miles,my front diff blew and it's been down hill ever since. The last time it regened. It did it 3 times in 45 minutes.
Does it make it go fast 💨
It definitely makes the throttle much more responsive and makes it feel much faster although it doesn’t actually give any additional power
@@dirtyclouds6445 Idash worth it or should I stick with standalone
@@andrespencer9893 what are you using it on? Same truck or project car?
@@dirtyclouds6445 same truck
Did I get to see it before anyone lol
Pedro Contreras you were very close lol
JUIICCCCYYY HAANNNDSS
Daniel Lee lol 😂
Nice check raise on the flop but personally I would’ve jammed when the ace came out on the river
Mileski i would’ve done that too but i would’ve jammed on the turn instead. depending on the turn though because if you jam on the river to represent the Ace, the player might think you rivered the set or maybe top top. so next time, jam on the turn to make it looks like you missed the double gutter draw
Daniel Lee but with the 3rd spade coming out on the turn? He only bet half pot on the flop so a small raise was the perfect descision on the turn considering Mike missed the back door flush draw, however when the Ace of hearts came on the river giving him the full house that presents a perfect opportunity to jam and probably get paid off
Mileski i think mike should’ve bet a little more than half pot because good poker players know that betting half pot is to make it seem like you missed the draw but if you went all in whether the 3rd spade came out or anything, and u jam all in, it confuses the player as to why you did it and doesn’t make any sense. therefore, going all in on the turn is still the best option. it puts Jimmy in a rough spot.
So...what does this actually do?
Thank you for your question! So first thing for me that i enjoy about it is all the info it offers and that it also lets me know exactly when a regen is happening and how far away i am from one. It offers a lot of information about your vehicle. As far as performance it can dramatically change the Pedal responsiveness which makes the truck feel like a completely different vehicle, the pedal responsiveness is fully adjustable. This setup has been a nice add on for my truck. Helped me understand my truck much more and has given exact temperatures of my transmission, engine oil and coolant which for me are important when I’m towing and my family is in the truck. Also shows my boost psi and def level in % instead of 5 bars. Over all it’s just a good unit to have in my opinion, and allows you to have full oversight of your vehicle.
@@dirtyclouds6445 thank you.
I wonder why that doesn't come from the factory instead of taking it out of the kids college fund. But it's worth it, it checks on bank 1 bank 2 bank 3.

@@iq6840 no they don’t! Lol they want you to have problems with them! That’s awesome man! That’s what I’m trying to do with this truck, it’s the first one I’ve loved 😌 the wife would love that new Tahoe but prices are through the roof right now 🤦🏻♂️
Pulling the transmission for the oil pump belt killed any interest in that setup. Stupid engineers. A belt driven oil pump just nuts!
I never keep any vehicle even close to the 150k miles when the belt is supposed to be serviced.
