Description
When it comes to increasing power and the overall efficiency of your 6.7 Cummins engine, airflow is king. By increasing the density of cool, fresh air into your engine, you're able to better atomize the existing fuel being sent to the cylinders, netting a more efficient burn of the fuel, hence increasing power and fuel economy, while reducing EGT's (Exhaust Gas Temperatures). Now, with the 6.7's, that's no easy feat because not only do you have an EGR valve situated in the manifold, but also a very restrictive grid heater that is part of the intake plenum. But, in usual Banks Power fashion, they went to work making the most efficient intake manifold kit while retaining a grid heater and even providing a provision for a secondary heater for those in cool climates, meaning you're not sacrificing a thing! WHAT IT DOES: The Monster-Ram improves airflow from the intercooler, flowing 936 cfm (71.5 lbs/min) with Banks’ High-Flow Heater and Billet Intake Plate compared to stock's 421 cfm (32.16 lbs/min). Monster-Ram raises boost without increasing backpressure at the turbine. The result is a more responsive, power-efficient engine that offers even more headroom than stock for higher horsepower applications. THE COMPLETE SYSTEM: Banks’ High-Flow Heater and Billet Intake Plate complete the perfect system. The High-Flow Heater allows for the removal of the restrictive stock heater grid plate. The new vertical coil-style heater provides the same functionality for cold starts as the stock grid heater but without obstructing airflow. Replacing the restrictive stock grid heater plate with the Banks High-Flow Intake Plate removes all obstructions and turbulence in the airflow path. HOW IT WAS DESIGNED: Utilizing the latest in CFD (computational fluid-dynamics), tested on the flow bench, the dyno, and on-road, Monster-Ram is a beast that only Banks could have unleashed. A direct-replacement aluminum casting, Monster-Ram is instant power, performance, and acceleration gratification. The factory inlet elbow is cramped and angular in order to accommodate the path of the stock number one fuel line. Banks Engineers designed a new number one fuel line, allowing the Monster-Ram to flow more air without obstruction. EXPANDABLE: With four 1/8” NPT ports, perfect for temperature and pressure sensors, as well as, provisions for an optional secondary heater, the sky's the limit for data acquisition and expandability.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:
  • Raises boost without increasing turbine drive pressure
  • Larger and less restrictive than stock intake
  • Improves flow of oxygen-rich air into cylinders
  • Quicker throttle response
  • Optimizes air pressure and distribution
  • Outflows stock over 88.3%
  • 3-3/8 inch inlet
  • Four 1/8 inch NPT ports
  • Accommodates stock mounting points
  • Includes proprietary fuel line and all necessary hardware
  • Available in Natural Raw Finish or Red Powdercoat
IMPORTANT FITMENT NOTE ( Pickup vs. Cab and Chassis):
  • This manifold is available specifically for a "cab and chassis" so its important to understand what you have. For reference, a "pickup" is the most popular and comes from the factory with a traditional picked bed whereas a cab and chassis would be a vehicle that came from the factory without a standard pickup bed as they are intended for upfit with a flatbed or service body.
  • The Black Powdercoat intake manifold system will arrive with the Banks Monster Ram logo on it. The logo was removed from the photo due to advertising concerns.
About Banks Power
BANKS POWER PRODUCTS

Established in 1958, Gale Banks Engineering has grown to 200+ employees on a 12-acre campus. The Mechanical Engineering Department, staffed with world-class automotive people, designs and tests the latest high performance equipment. Sophisticated electronic engineering technologies are applied to engine improvement in the rapidly growing Computer Systems Engineering Department. GBE designs turbocharged engines from the centerline of the crankshaft, out.

BANKS DIESEL PERFORMANCE IS UNDISPUTED

Gale Banks Engineering (Banks Performance) is one of the most trusted names in diesel performance and manufacturers arguably the highest quality diesel truck parts for our Cummins, Duramax, or Powerstroke diesel trucks with highly sophisticated and tested components from your airbox to the tailpipe, and everything in between. With products like the Ram-Air Intake System for your Cummins, Techni-Cooler Intercooler for your Power Stroke, Big Head Wastegate for your Duramax, High-Ram Intake Manifold for your Ecodiesel, and their extensive line of Monster Banks Exhaust systems to help your engine exhale, you’ll be sure that every last ounce of available airflow is being utilized. Further, Banks Power Products produces numerous diesel tuners and programmers, such as their Derringer, iQ, AutoMind, and EconoMind, and water methanol injection systems to not only produce additional horsepower, but lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGT’s) and increase fuel economy (MPG’s). And for those of us that would prefer to not source individual parts from numerous manufacturers, they deliver proven complete vehicle packages that are tested to perform at their pinnacle when used in conjunction with one another, such as their Big Hoss Bundles, PowerPacks, and Six-Gun Bundles.

Now, with all of this available horsepower, how are you going to get it to the ground? Don’t worry, they've got you covered with their highly acclaimed Billet Torque Converters featuring proven triple disc technology. To keep your newly found horsepower under control, Banks also manufactures a complete line of exhaust brakes. Available are both traditional inline mechanical exhaust brakes, as well as their line of SpeedBrakes that take advantage of the electronically controlled veins or sliding rings in newer variable geometry turbos (VGT) for both a simple installation and effective braking.

BANKS EXHAUST AT DPP!

Yes, Banks even manufactures their own line of exhaust systems and components that work just as well when included in one of their complete power packages as they do when installed independently. One thing that really sets Banks exhaust systems apart from the rest of the competition, is the fact they are wheelbase specific. While every other manufacturer designs their kits for all wheelbases, and essentially relies on you either cutting or excluding a piece for a shorter application (such as a crew cab, short bed), Banks has specific part numbers for each configuration to reduce installation time.

Wow, what DON’T they do? Well, they don’t fail, they don’t produce cheap knock off parts, and they don’t let the competition finish ahead of them, that’s what Banks DOESN’T do!

BANKS PROJECTS

While having the ability to produce world class performance parts is one thing, putting your money where your mouth is could be on an entirely different level, and that's exactly what Gale Banks is known for. Time and again, they've proven their design, engineering and manufacturing prowess in whole vehicle development/modification, including Project Sidewinder, Banks GMC Syclone, and the big block twin-turbo Pontiac Firebird. And in order to provide testament to the capabilities of such vehicles, you are likely to find Gale Banks himself on the Bonneville Salt Flats setting a new land speed record, or on site with the military refining the engines that they specifically build for their Oshkosh JLTV vehicles. So yeah, you can rest assured that Banks has used, abused, and attempted to find the limits of every one of their products.
