The Banks Monster-Ram Intake System is a high-performance upgrade designed specifically for the 2013–2018 RAM 3500, 4500, and 5500 Chassis Cab models equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. Engineered to eliminate airflow restrictions, this intake system significantly improves throttle response and fuel economy. By replacing the factory’s failure-prone grid heater with a robust, high-flow cast intake plate, the Monster-Ram prevents severe engine damage and enhances reliability.
Built for diesel enthusiasts and professionals seeking dependable power gains and improved efficiency, the Monster-Ram delivers optimized air pressure and distribution to the engine’s cylinders. This upgrade is ideal for those who want to maximize their RAM’s performance without compromising emissions compliance or daily drivability.
The Monster-Ram Intake System offers a range of advanced features that set it apart from the stock intake elbow:
The Monster-Ram Intake System is crafted from high-quality cast materials engineered to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty diesel applications. Its robust construction eliminates the weak points found in the factory grid heater, replacing it with a solid, high-flow intake plate that ensures consistent airflow and durability. The red powder coat finish not only enhances corrosion resistance but also adds a distinctive look under the hood. Precision engineering ensures the intake fits seamlessly with existing factory components, maintaining OEM mounting locations and minimizing installation complexity.
By significantly increasing airflow and optimizing air distribution, the Monster-Ram Intake System improves throttle response and engine efficiency. This results in a noticeable improvement in drivability and fuel economy. The system raises boost pressure without adding stress to the turbocharger, allowing the engine to breathe easier and perform more effectively under load. While primarily focused on performance gains, the intake’s design also contributes to a smoother engine sound characteristic of a well-tuned diesel setup.
The Monster-Ram Intake System is designed for a direct bolt-on installation on 2013–2018 RAM 3500, 4500, and 5500 Chassis Cab trucks with the 6.7L Cummins engine. It utilizes all stock mounting points and includes proprietary fuel line and all necessary hardware, making installation straightforward with no permanent modifications required. The system replaces the factory intake elbow and grid heater, simplifying the intake path and improving reliability.
This intake system is perfect for RAM owners who demand improved throttle response, enhanced fuel economy, and increased engine reliability. It is especially suited for those who use their trucks for heavy-duty work, towing, or daily driving and want a durable, emissions-compliant upgrade that delivers measurable performance benefits without sacrificing compliance or dependability.
The Banks Monster-Ram Intake System is the only 50-state emissions-compliant RAM intake elbow available, ensuring legal use across all U.S. states without compromising environmental standards.
Banks Power develops emissions-compliant performance parts for diesel and gas trucks, SUVs, and tow rigs—focused on airflow, efficiency, and reliable power.

ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
