Banks Power Monster-Ram Intake System
2013–2018 RAM 2500/3500 6.7L Cummins
Part #: 42798-PC
Overview
The Banks Monster-Ram Intake System is a high-performance upgrade designed specifically for the 2013 to 2018 RAM 2500 and 3500 equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. Engineered to eliminate airflow restrictions, this intake system significantly improves throttle response and fuel economy by delivering a smoother, more efficient flow of oxygen-rich air into the engine’s cylinders. It replaces the factory’s failure-prone grid heater with a robust, patent-pending high-flow cast intake plate, enhancing reliability and protecting your engine from severe damage.
Ideal for diesel enthusiasts seeking improved power delivery and durability, the Monster-Ram is the only 50-state emissions-compliant intake elbow available for this RAM model, making it a practical choice for daily drivers and performance seekers alike.
Key Features
The Monster-Ram Intake System combines innovative design with practical benefits to optimize your RAM’s performance:
- Raises boost pressure without increasing turbine drive pressure for efficient power gains
- Larger and less restrictive than the stock intake, allowing greater airflow
- Improves oxygen-rich air delivery to cylinders for enhanced combustion
- Delivers quicker throttle response for a more responsive driving experience
- Optimizes air pressure and distribution within the intake system
- Outflows stock intake by over 88.3%, maximizing airflow capacity
- Features a 3-3/8 inch inlet to accommodate increased air volume
- Includes four 1/8 inch NPT ports for additional sensor or accessory integration
- Maintains compatibility with factory mounting points for straightforward installation
- Available in red powder-coated, black powder-coated, or raw finish options
Construction & Design
The Monster-Ram is crafted from high-quality cast materials designed to withstand the rigors of diesel engine operation. Its robust construction replaces the fragile factory grid heater with a durable cast intake plate, eliminating a common failure point. The system’s design focuses on maximizing airflow while maintaining structural integrity and heat resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance under demanding conditions.
The powder-coated finishes provide corrosion resistance and an aggressive aesthetic, while the raw option offers a clean, functional look. Precision engineering ensures the intake fits seamlessly with existing factory components, preserving OEM mounting points and simplifying installation.
Performance & Sound
By significantly increasing airflow and optimizing air pressure, the Monster-Ram Intake System enhances throttle response and engine efficiency. Drivers will notice a more immediate and controlled power delivery, especially under load. While primarily focused on performance and reliability, the improved airflow can also contribute to a subtle enhancement in engine induction sound, adding to the driving experience without excessive noise.
Installation & Fitment
Designed as a direct replacement for the factory intake elbow, the Monster-Ram installs easily using existing mounting points with no permanent modifications required. The kit includes all necessary hardware and a proprietary fuel line to ensure a secure and proper fit. Installation can typically be completed with basic hand tools, making it accessible for both professional installers and experienced DIY enthusiasts.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
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!
