The Banks Power Monster-Ram Intake System is a high-performance upgrade designed specifically for the 2013–2018 RAM 2500 and 3500 equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. This intake system dramatically improves airflow from the intercooler, nearly doubling the mass air flow compared to the stock setup. By optimizing boost pressure without increasing backpressure at the turbine, the Monster-Ram delivers a more responsive and efficient engine experience. It is ideal for diesel enthusiasts seeking enhanced power, quicker acceleration, and greater headroom for future horsepower upgrades.
Engineered with precision and tested extensively on the flow bench, dyno, and real-world driving conditions, the Monster-Ram is a direct replacement for the factory inlet elbow. It addresses the restrictive design of the stock component by incorporating a redesigned fuel line and removing airflow obstructions, resulting in instant power and performance gains.
The Monster-Ram Intake System combines advanced engineering and practical enhancements to maximize airflow and engine responsiveness. Key features include:
The Monster-Ram is crafted from high-quality aluminum, providing durability and heat resistance essential for demanding diesel applications. The design process leveraged the latest in computational fluid dynamics to optimize airflow and minimize turbulence. Banks engineers reimagined the inlet elbow and fuel line routing to remove the angular constraints of the factory design, resulting in a smoother, more efficient air intake path. The billet intake plate and high-flow heater coil are precision-machined to exacting standards, ensuring consistent performance and reliability.
By significantly increasing airflow and reducing backpressure, the Monster-Ram enhances throttle response and engine efficiency. Drivers will notice quicker spool-up times and improved power delivery across the RPM range. The system maintains the factory heater functionality for cold starts without compromising airflow, ensuring reliable operation in all conditions. While primarily focused on performance gains, the intake system also contributes to a more aggressive engine sound characteristic of enhanced airflow.
The Monster-Ram Intake System is designed as a direct replacement for the factory inlet elbow on 2013–2018 RAM 2500 and 3500 trucks with the 6.7L Cummins engine. Installation requires no permanent modifications and utilizes the redesigned No. 1 fuel line included in the kit to accommodate the improved airflow path. The system fits precisely with OEM mounting points and hardware, making installation straightforward for experienced technicians or knowledgeable enthusiasts.
The Banks Monster-Ram Intake System is perfect for RAM 2500 and 3500 owners looking to maximize the performance potential of their 6.7L Cummins diesel. It suits daily drivers seeking improved throttle response and efficiency, as well as enthusiasts preparing their trucks for higher horsepower builds. Its sensor ports also make it an excellent choice for tuners and data-driven performance enthusiasts who want to monitor intake conditions closely.
Banks Power develops emissions-compliant performance parts for diesel and gas trucks, SUVs, and tow rigs—focused on airflow, efficiency, and reliable power. With decades of engineering and patented development, Banks offers systems like intakes, exhaust and boost upgrades, tuners, and supporting components designed to increase performance while maintaining drivability for real-world use.
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!
