Banks High-Ram Intake Improves Response & MPG





How airflow restrictions waste power



  • Intake Restrictions cause engines to work harder.

  • Exhaust backpressure generates a massive engine heat-load

  • To expel exhaust power is taken from the crankshaft

  • The cooling fans will run more, taking power and making noise

  • Increased friction from hot, degrading lubricants

  • Gasoline-vehicle makers mask poor-airflow problems (eg. detonation) with overly-rich fuel

  • Excess fuel is wasted, worsening mileage and emissions

  • Inadequate airflow chokes engine's potential







Larger & less restrictive than the puny stock air intake, Banks High-Ram allows a greater flow of oxygen-rich air into the cylinders for instant torque & responsiveness + greater fuel economy.


Cooler, denser air packs real power. That's an absolute fact. So why would you choke off all that power-packed air at the last second on its way from the intercooler to the intake manifold? That's exactly what the stock air intake does.

The 3 inch Banks High-Ram changes all that. Designed on the computer using computational fluid dynamics, tested on the flow bench and proved on the dyno, High-Ram is much more than just another pretty air inlet. For even greater airflow with more power and improved throttle response, step-up to the 3 1/2 inch Banks High-Ram system with Boost Tube.

Don't blow your last chance to add vital turbo boost to your engine. Whether you are just starting out or you have already made major aftermarket modifications, go for the Banks High-Ram.
