Banks Power Boost Tube Upgrade Kit

2010–2012 Dodge / RAM 2500/3500 6.7L Cummins

Part #: 25997

Overview

The Banks Power Boost Tube Upgrade Kit is engineered to significantly enhance the airflow in your 2010–2012 Dodge and RAM 2500/3500 equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. Designed as a direct replacement for the factory plastic boost tubes, this kit increases the flow area by up to 37%, allowing your turbocharger to spool faster and deliver more power. Whether you are running the stock setup or have upgraded to the Banks Monster-Ram intake system, these boost tubes optimize airflow, improve boost retention, and support higher horsepower gains.

Ideal for diesel enthusiasts seeking improved throttle response and efficiency, the Banks Boost Tubes provide a durable, high-performance solution that outperforms the restrictive stock components. This upgrade is a critical step for anyone looking to maximize the potential of their turbocharged 6.7L Cummins.

Key Features

Designed with precision and durability in mind, the Banks Power Boost Tube Upgrade Kit offers the following key benefits:

• Up to 37% increase in flow area compared to stock boost tubes, enhancing airflow and turbo response.
• 3.5" constant diameter tubing, larger than the factory 3.0" plastic tubes, for superior flow capacity.
• Mandrel-bent aluminized steel construction with larger radius bends to reduce turbulence and pressure drop.
• Compatible with stock intercooler and Banks Monster-Ram intake systems (3.5" or 4" versions).
• Red powder-coated finish on the tubes for corrosion resistance and a professional appearance, with natural finish ends for secure grip.
• Heavy-duty 4- and 5-ply silicone couplers designed to withstand high temperatures and boost pressures.
• Spring-loaded constant tension clamps maintain a tight seal to prevent leaks and blown boots under high boost conditions.
• Improves boost pressure retention between the turbocharger, intercooler, and intake manifold for maximum power delivery.
• Lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) and greater cooling capacity due to improved airflow.

Construction & Design

The Banks Boost Tubes are crafted from high-quality aluminized steel, chosen for its excellent heat resistance and corrosion protection. The tubes are mandrel bent to maintain a constant 3.5" diameter throughout, ensuring smooth airflow without restrictions or turbulence caused by sharp bends or diameter changes. This precision engineering results in quicker turbo spool times and improved overall engine efficiency.

The red powder-coat finish not only enhances durability but also adds a distinctive look under the hood. The finish stops short of the tube ends to provide a better grip surface for the silicone couplers, which are reinforced with multiple plies to handle extreme temperatures and pressures commonly found in high-boost diesel applications.

Performance & Sound

By increasing the boost tube diameter and optimizing airflow, this upgrade reduces turbo lag and improves throttle response. The enhanced airflow allows for more fuel delivery, translating into increased horsepower and torque potential. Additionally, better boost retention helps maintain consistent power delivery under load. While primarily focused on performance, the improved airflow can also contribute to a cleaner, more efficient combustion process.

Installation & Fitment

The Banks Power Boost Tube Upgrade Kit is designed for a direct bolt-on installation on 2010 through 2012 Dodge and RAM 2500/3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. No modifications are necessary when installing with the stock intercooler or Banks Monster-Ram intake systems. The kit includes all necessary couplers and clamps, making installation straightforward for experienced DIYers or professional technicians.

What's Included

• 3.5" mandrel-bent aluminized steel boost tubes with red powder-coat finish
