Banks Ram-Air Intake Systems are thoroughly tested and proven to deliver exceptional performance. The development process begins with CAD software prototypes, followed by advanced airflow simulations. Once a hardware prototype is created, it undergoes flowbench testing, real-world vehicle testing, and comprehensive air density comparisons against stock systems and leading competitors.
Banks Ram-Air Intake is engineered to maximize the flow of cool, dense air to the engine, helping increase horsepower while improving fuel efficiency. Featuring an enclosed cold-air housing, a large inlet with a giant dome-shaped filter, and a streamlined internal design, it delivers up to 35% better airflow than stock systems. Its advanced design also provides greater air density to the turbocharger inlet than competing intake systems tested.
Designed for long-term reliability, the Banks Ram-Air Intake features an exclusive 5-inch bellows that accommodates engine movement, reducing stress on components and extending service life. The system is also engineered to prevent fault or error codes, ensuring dependable operation without compromising vehicle performance.
The Banks Ram-Air Intake is designed to deliver denser, cooler air where it matters most. As engine demand increases, the system continues to improve airflow, providing enhanced power and better fuel economy, making it an ideal upgrade for trucks that work hard under demanding conditions.

One of the most commonly asked questions in our service center is, “How do I clean my air filter?” In this tutorial, we explain the differences between oiled and dry filters, as well as how to clean and re-oil them. We’ve even created a free re-oiling calculator so you know precisely how much oil to use. You'll come across people online complaining about oil filters caking up their MAF sensor located in their air intake tube. This occurs only when filters are improperly oiled. In this video, we’ll show you the right way to do it so this doesn't occur. If properly cared for, your Ram-Air filter element should last years and years.
Gale talks with SpeedTV about what went into developing the Ram-Air cold air intake system.
