Description:
Banks' revolutionary Ram-Air Intake System offers the reliability and durability of a factory intake yet delivers astonishing airflow. It flows up to 64% better than stock and outflows Volant and AIRAID, thanks in part to the Ram-Air's huge filter area (fewer filter cleanings!), giant outlet, and the complete air filter housing with large side & bottom inlets. Banks Ram-Air collects & directs more power-producing cool, dense air to the engine, lowering EGTs and smoke and improving fuel economy, too! The lifetime cotton gauze filter traps the most dirt and debris. And Ram-Air is the only aftermarket intake with 4-1/2" bellows to accommodate engine movement. This prevents component damage and promotes reliable service life.

Banks is one of the premier names in turbocharged diesel modification, but there is a lot more to the company than just that. Banks engines have been used everyone from NAVY Seals to winners at the Bonneville salt-flats.
Banks' name precedes him and it is no coincidence that he teaches to graduate students of the General Motors Institute. Banks' engineering spirit has allowed him to innovate great things, such as the twin-turbo small block Chevy in the late 1970's.

Q: How do you install an air intake?
A: Air intakes are a true bolt-on application. The removal of your factory air box and resonator will be needed and the air intake installed in its place. Basic hand tools are needed, and the intake installs in minutes. If you don't regularly work on your truck yourself, installing an air intake might be a great way to get started and get familiarized because it's perhaps the most simple bolt-on performance upgrade you can do. Alternatively, you can take it to a shop to have it installed and expect the labor cost to be low since it would be an hour or less of labor most likely.
Q: Do you have to buy an air filter if you're buying an air intake?
A: Aair intakes are usually sold with all the components needed including the filter and all adapters.
Q: What do air intakes do? Why buy an air intake?
A: Air intakes bring more air into the engine, which creates more power during combustion. Air intakes will generally help with throttle response and higher power gains, adding a pleasing induction sound to your engine under acceleration. An air intake also significantly cleans up your under-hood appearance and makes it easier to see and access components of your engine bay.
