- Опубликовано: 24 май 2024
- The Banks Monster-Ram is the ONLY 50-state emissions compliant intake manifold available for all RAM 6.7L Cummins 2500/3500 pickups. The system improves airflow from the intercooler. Killing stock and the competitors, it flows 72.7 lbs/min Mass Air Flow with Banks’ High-Flow Heater and Billet Intake Plate compared to stock's 38.6 lbs/min. That's an 88.3% increase! The proprietary design raises boost and decreases backpressure at the turbine. The result is better throttle response, improved fuel economy, and far more headroom than stock, especially in higher horsepower applications. Whether your RAM is stock or tuned, it will benefit from the Monster-Ram.

Fuel costs going threw the roof and every drop matter's , ya just can't ignore anything that saves fuel today. Great job on explaining the gains and the science on how you do it.
Thank you! We're glad your picking up what we're putting down. Making more power with the same fueling (denser air) will help lots of guys with towing.
YES, spend $1k to MAYBE save ????? some fuel.
@@jeffs2809 haven't seen any numbers, but it could pay for itself if you are using the truck to haul commercial.
@@drunkpolack7612 not going to poison the planet cause of my politics, that is just stupid. That engine choking " emissions garbage" is why we still have these diesels on the road in none commercial applications, maybe say thank you for the extra horse power and cleaner emissions these EPA rules have given you over the years with the R&D of these engines and maybe stfu.
@@jeffs2809 just to eliminate the faulty grid heater bolt makes it a no brainier.. and the better pedal response... money well spent!
The things that come from this mind simply blow me away. The thrill of what this great man comes up with next is well worth the wait. And to top it off he includes just about everything you need, except the power to installing these products into your vehicle, which is on you. Well done Mr, Banks, well done. Pure genius.
Couldn't agree more, Gale loves talking shop and data.
Lol best salesman around eh.
@@hockeyplayer0241 under heavy load, the egr is closed. So 100% air would come from the charge air cooler.
@@mariomarquez5559 not interested in real world results lol
@@davidburdett1920 Poor Mario...seems to not like Banks products.
I have been watching this man for 50 plus years and I am always amazed he coming out with the best parts. Mr.Gale banks you are a true treasure and a genius
Got all this stuff on 2018 Ram 3500, also use Banks heater grid delete, Double R Diesel tuning. Runs cool and clean ,pulls 15,000 lb. 5 wheel camper real easy. Spent $ 2700 with Banks, worth every penny, thank you Mr. Banks!
I don’t even own a diesel truck, but I’m here because every time I see Gale Banks talk data: I learn something. Keep it up Gale! You’re educating the next generation of Hot Rodders .
P.S. Hoping to see the another episode on the development of the monster truck engine. Is there one in the pipeline?
Hilarious, so am I! Aircraft mechanic then mechanical engineer, read countless internal combustion engine theory books and been playing with building cars/engines for 20+ years yet I seem to always pick something up from Gale.
@@mariomarquez5559 Cummins spends $100s thousand of dollars on developing safe reliable engines that can be mass produced maximizing their profits and have little no warranty work on them just as the other manufacturers do.
@@msk3905 well said.
same!
Agreed!
Installed the Monster Ram intake on 2016 6.7 and was blown away by improved performance and throttle response. Pulling a fully loaded 38ft toy hauler up Parleys Canyon out of Salt Lake City is longer a slow drive. So much more power I have watch my speed.
Careful, that 68RFE doesn’t like extra power unless you make some upgrades to it. Rule with Cummins, tranny is the weakest link, fix that first then make the engine upgrades.
What's there any fuel academy increase
😂 don’t lie! I had the complete banks monster ram, tubes and inter cooler! Made no difference. Took it off and sold it 6m later to someone who also thought it was gonna do wonders. If someone swapped yours out without you knowing I promise you wouldn’t feel a difference. Unless you’re upgrading everything else with it, it’s almost pointless. Not a banks hater, it’s a great setup for high HP trucks not for a truck with a banks toner 😂
Your stuff has and always will be the very best. Thanks for sharing and all that you have done for this industry. Truly innovative, well engineered and tested beyond confidence. Kudos to you and your work over the years. From an old, retired cetane sniffer.
You made my night seeing a 6.7 Cummins video. Thank you for your time and R&D. We can't thank you enough for your work Mr.Banks.
One of the most detailed videos I've ever seen to explain airflow in any turbocharged engine.
We appreciate all the knowledge you share with us to grow on. Even if this is advertising ,
It shows us real specs and stuff the people actually care about 💪🏼
Mr Banks, thanks you for all you do for the auto industry. You are a legend, and a personal hero of mine. You are the reason I became an engineer (not automotive) and the reason I became the gear head I am today. Other than my intake (S&B) every component I put on this truck will be from Banks. Ordering this part next payday.
if only our teachers had such knowledge and passion for it.... Could you imagine having someone this passionate teach you stuff
you are amazing!
Installing an Intercooler, boost tubes, monster ram intake and pedal monster this week, I can't wait to feel the difference
20:46 , The smile on his face..
what more does an engineer want.. when the product you built performs magnificently. That's something more than money can give.
this guy is just awesome. I could watch him all day. Will be doing this upgrade in the next 30 days!
Well Mr. Banks the fact that this thing comes with all of the accessories and everything to include the block off plate in one package, I decided to pull the trigger you've inspired me sir. I will upgrade to boost tubes eventually.
Thank you!
Did it help
Mr. Banks, you've always offered premier diesel products - never inexpensive, but worth every penny in terms of performance per dollar.
As an engine builder, I had often wondered how effective the gasoline engine high performance school of thought would carry over to diesel performance, back when your land speed pickup was born my questions were answered.
Thank you!
Hey Gale. I'm an engineer. This video is like my senior year thermodynamics class, except it's actually interesting. Thank you!
That '21 Ram is already looking like a totally different animal since your last video! Can't wait to see what else you come up with for the 19+ models.
Great intel! Thank you for taking the time to share. I would love to see what glacier diesels numbers come out to be.
I’m a fan of Banks products and Gale does a great job making videos explaining his products. I will definitely continue to support this company.
This is the greatest man that ever lived I hope he has a son or someone who follows in his footsteps! I have purchased some of his products and they are quality and worth the money! I love watching his videos, even if I don't understand everything I know enough from what he is saying about his products to be a strong believer!
Thanks Banks engineering!!!!
You really are amazing!!!!! Keep up the great work!!! Thank you for all that you do for the automotive industry!!!
Very impressive work guys!! Can’t wait to test it for ya!
Mr. Banks you have taught us so much and we appreciate it and since starting watching a year ago I will be buying all of your product for my Cummins 4th gen and I do this because one I want all the power and fuel milage but also I feel it’s an investment in you to do more. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Well said and agree
I really appreciate all the development you put into your products! Do you know of any companies that put this much research into VW diesel engines ? I already have the monster exhaust, but im going full 3 inch and have to make it myself . I wanna make sure I get good properly engineering in my parts.
Don't like seeing you get winded....but enjoy the fact there is not one ounce of quit in you sir. You really have made the world better providing endless examples of the pursuit of excellence.
great content always love the knowledge
WOW! A very concise, clear performance. Mr. Banks is quite articulate!
I have been upgrading my 21 ram since I got it. All I have is a pedal monster and I was blown away. Save up and get this just to be blown away again.
In short, a cylinder can only draw in X volume of air, and to improve the cylinder filling for more torque there are only two ways of doing it.
a/ make it more efficent passing the air into the cylinder to fill it to it's maximum potential - or above.- - end/or remove the exhaust gases as effectively as possible and/or minimise the pressure resistance to the piston forcing the gases out.
b/ increase the density of the air drawn in - the volume is the same, but the oxygen content is much greater.
By tackling all these things, as Mr Banks does, the net advantage is greater than the individual parts and there is also the benefit of avoiding one 'improvement' compromising something else.
Thank the Lord that someone understands. 🤣
In lame man's terms...? If this is the only mod I do to the truck, what will I notice a change or difference from stock the most?
@@gutierrezc8709
Not something i can comment on, but there are reviews here, and elsewhere, from people who have tried it - something like "Banks monster ram" should bring up plenty of hits.
Volumetric efficiency 🤔
@@fredeg894 See a/
Could not believe the difference on my 2019 HO. Cannot wait to receive my banks Ram Air. LOVE it
All absolutely love Gale Banks, and his company Banks Power, for all that they do for the diesel engine, power train community! They truly do make amazing stuff!
Having grown up in Iowa like Mr. Banks did, I can SO relate to the way he speaks on things. Sounds like one of my REALLY cool autos teacher (Banks is obviously WAY smarter too). Thanks Mr Banks!
He grew up in Iowa ?
I’m not going to even pretend I understand everything Mr. Banks says, but I do know one thing for sure and that it’s not a bunch of crap he’s shoveling our way, and in the end I’m sure I’ve learned something. He’s a very smart man and always a great video to watch and listen, thanks again🇺🇸😀
Gale makes me happy in every single video, keep it up buddy, you’re absolutely killing it!!!
I just ordered one for my stock 2016 Ram 3500 with over 413,000 miles. Still runs great too so this was great info. I guess it'll run even greater
69k miles a year...wow crazy...here i just bought a 07 6.7 with 409K miles...Thought that was a lot....Fun times
lol good god
Everyday after work I come to church. Listening to Gale Banks is just soothing and knowledgeable information.
Just bought a 23’ Ram 2500 & can’t wait to save some money so that I can afford the whole system @ once, including the tuner & exhaust kit! Thanks Mr. Banks!!!
That whole set up just went to the top of my wish list, I need this lol
This guy reminds me of one of my old engineering professors in college. He made each physics problem somehow related to engines. It was great.
Once again you are three king of performance in the industry, ,I will be getting that Intake asap...
Thank you for your research and discovery of how to make it hum in tune and increase the flow and output your such a genius! I wish you had time to answer a few questions for me so I guess you know how to reply if your able to?
i have nothing but respect for mr.banks.yes his products are expensive, but thousands of hours on r&d dont come cheap for anyone.
GREAT VIDEO GALE!!!! TOTALLY AWESOME UPGRADE!!! TOTALLY AWSOME EDUCATION!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!! I LEARNED SO MUCH!!!! AND 50 STATE LEGAL!!!!
Goes into such detail great job thanks for the video
When you buy Banks , your paying for proven performance! This guy is just amazing.🙌✌
Hey. Just had the monster ram and boost tubes installed on my 2021 ram HO 3500. I have a throttle booster and s&b intake. Fitment was perfect and the boost come on way quicker now. Definitely noticeable in the seat of my pants dyno and recommend to avoid that costly engine bill . I had 40000km on my truck and the heat grid was starting to fail, you can see the plastic starting to get brittle. . Anyways very happy customer and thanks for the smiles per gallon!
This man is an inspiration. Talk about love of his work. He could have retired if he wanted a couple of decades ago.
The next time someone comments “the head can only flow “XYZ” I’m gonna scream. They don’t get it. Another great product from the Banks team!
Third time I've watched this in three days . I can hardly wait till tomorrow, to watch it again
I love the innovation of Banks congrats Gale and all the team.
I love his attitude! "Can I kick my own ass" 😂 awesome video! Ordering mine!
I was waiting for this video for a very long time
That's an awesome group of products. Definitely would like to see dyno figures. Now can we get some Duramax upgrades please!
Mine works really well, no more cold starts for me. I have a 2007.5 and we removed the stock heater grid and added this monster ram intake. It’s starting to get to freezing temperatures at night. So, I couldn’t wait to start the truck up. It worked great!
Please explain to me how this eliminates cold starts?
What I love is all the people who just flat hate Banks. Those same people are just pissing away horsepower and money on junk parts from company's who don't do a fraction of R & D that Banks does. I have an uncle who started working for Cummins about 40 years go as a Mechanic in Joplin, MO. He was eventually moved to Denver, CO to work on the big generators used by Ski resorts and hospitals. He retired a few years ago, the only person to ever sit on the board of directors without a college education. He swears by Banks parts, and has always fitted out his Ram trucks with lots of shiny stuff from Banks. If their good enough for uncle Joe they have to be good parts, as far as I remember he hasn't bought anything other than OEM or Banks since he started buying Ram 2500's years ago to pull his camper with.
Thank you very much for sharing Mr Banks
this guy rocks! only emission compliant intake in the states with insane horse power gains
Hey I'm comment 1! Haven't seen this Ram Cummins since you bought it! Looks like you were busy using it for R&D. Great job as always 👏
I love the change in grid heater, those stock one are known to fail and crack and drop parts in the engine destroying valves or worse. Also, does your redesigned fuel rail line work on the new CP3 equipped versions?
@@4wdiesels When I pulled mine off to install the Monster Ram Gen 2, the grid heater was plugging up with carbon. It was only a matter of time before it would've caused some real sadness. The fuel line replaces the first injector line only as your looking at the fuel rail. It does not change the rest of the fuel rail configuration.
@@usocrazy6133 thanks for the response. I like mods like this. I'm tuned so I definitely see one of these in my future. I have a CP4 in my '19 due for a CP3 soon via recall so I'll at least wait until that's done.
@@4wdiesels I've also installed the Data Monster with Pedal Monster, intercool pipes, Monster Ram air intake, rear diff cover, and the 5 inch exhaust. I don't regret it at all. Banks woke the beast within.
Banks is the only reason I want a diesel truck to buy his products.
This comment ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I wish banks had more than the pedal monster for my 15 ram 5.7l. He does wonders with everything he touches!
Now that is one hell of a flower. Love it. Nice job banks!
God damn I love these informational videos, my favorite videos on RUclips by far
Hey now! No need to be using God's name in vain. God has been using Gale Banks to engineer/make awesome stuff to make engines more efficient for years
Hopefully Banks will continue making more videos, so we can see whats going on, Hopefully the testimonials will be far and few in between.
What an amazing guy..The best to ever do it...
60 years ago??? Dude how old is he. This man is a living legend
79 years young.
Interested in baseline vs post installation of the monster ram and ram air Cai dyno numbers. These flow ratings are great, but those of us in the real world better understand hp/tq gains....
Gale, your science and testing is why I choose your products every time. Cold air with super scoop and exhaust brake on so far; Monster ram, ecomind and inter cooler pack to come on my 07 5.9 Cummins.
Speaking of testing… what’s up with killing that Duramax? Been itching harder than a crack addict for the next mod and test video.
Gale banks is a national treasure. Thank you so much sir 🙏🏽
very nice improvement
Amazing, I wish I had this type of knowledge.
Well, this just sold me. I will be getting one next week.
Cool work making performance parts for a living!
On my 2018 - 6.7 Cummins, I have the Monster Elbow w/ plate (coupled with an S&B CAI), Pedal Monster, and Rear Ram-Air diff cover. NEXT is the intercooler - THEN the weight loss program ;)
Hey there, I have the same upgrades except the diff cover. I just ordered the monster ram and it should be here in a few weeks. What did you notice after you had your Banks monster ram installed. Thanks
@@cooperbrown1 I noticed a lot of off-the-line torque, especially when pulling the 37' toy hauler! :D MPG didn't really increase for me, at least a big noticible change, but I have a lead foot anyways haha!
@@bryanyoung661The torque is awesome to know, thanks!
@@bryanyoung661 How's the intake holding up?
@@sharee-1111 going strong =)
I just finished installing mine on my 2007.5 that has 275,625mi. on it I bought it new in 07 with 26mi on it. When I removed the old Intake it wasn't to bad as far as soot, and the heater grid looked good also, and I'm sure that had to do with me deleting all of the stuff at 20,000mi (don't have emission here were I live) the heater grid was easy once I got the fuel lines broke loose. Once everything was finished and double checked I did have a clamp on the new intercooler tubes that I installed also so I had a boost leak. Got home cause I noticed that the boost on my I-DASH Gauge would only go to about 9psi got home and found the T Clamp on the tube that attaches to the Turbo was off, so put it back on and tightened everything down and took a ride. Well I can tell you this my truck runs better than when it was new, got on it a few times and hit 22psi on my gauge. This product is great and does exactly like Gale Banks talks about in this video. Great product I should have done this a while ago. Keep up the great products, and research that you do.
I’ve been praying y’all would make a monster ram intake for the Cummins cab and chassis trucks!
Does Banks power just offer the coil style grid heater separately? The videos are all great, full of information and it also education at the same time. Keep up the great work Banks team.
We do not.
Gale hits another home run out of the park with his manifold air density device! Great work Banks Engineering! Now how about making a product like that for the 5..9 CR owners?
We already do, two as a matter of fact.

A master explainer 🙏👌🏾💪🏾
I just installed this #1 because of the grid heater bolt. I was very skeptical of anything else because of all the negative comments on the internet. But I will say there is definitely an improvement in MPGs getting around 2 more miles a gallon and there is some noticeable performance. Granted my truck is deleted and a mild tune. And it looks awesome.
And this is with a manual transmission 2010
Just ordered mine yesterday, can't wait to put it on the truck!
Hope you enjoy it!
Genius at work,
Thank him
Thank you banks team.
Woah . I haven't eaten skittles in forever. That's some neat air flow technology. Major improvement eh
Dudes a thinker. Thanks Gale.
Very informative and a great comparison of different products. I wish I could watch with my kids in the room as there is continuous poor language throughout the video...
You are the best my man!!!
Seems like a great product! But I’d like to see some data that supports an actual measurable change in drivability or efficiency! Horsepower and torque gains, throttle response (horsepower over time?), mpg gain etc.
I agree. Yeah this CAN flow 'X' amount of air @ whatever air density so on and so forth but let's see these parts installed one at a time and proven on a dyno
Damn that’s impressive! But wow $1k is a lot of cash! I have a lot of banks stuff. U guys are great.
Ok I put it on my truck with there heater mod. 2011 ram. h&s tuner. Did it help. I mean i feel like I got some better mid range power. Fuel milage maybe 1 mpg better. Worth the money I don't know. Looks cool.
Simply brilliant 👍👍👍
I LOVE THIS,THANKS.
GOD BLESS ALL Y'ALL...
This is awesome, any idea when you guys will have an intercooler for the 22s will be out?
Gale Banks you forgot more than I will ever know. Kudos to you Sir!
It‘s such a pitty that those engines aren’t really availiable in Europe, I‘d love to buy those products from you!
How would this be different if the outlet pressure of the test were equivalent to, say, maximum operating pressure? Would the advantage be greater or reduced? I'm guessing in this test that the velocity of the air would be higher because the overall pressure is lower, isn't it? When the pressure goes up to operating pressure, wouldn't the air velocity reduce if air mass flow is constant? If that's true, would that velocity reduction amplify this effect or attenuate this effect? Would love to understand what actually happens in that situation. Or, if its even different at all. I'm guessing Gale knows and I'd love to see a follow up.
Love all the videos!
What about the tubes for the air flow do they come with it or can we purchase them? I'm not seeing it on the website. I'm gonna also get the oiled air intake & the pedal monster. Thank you Mr. Banks! I have been waiting a long time for this!
i always love listening to Gale,hes a great man!!!
Diesel Data ASMR 😄
Can you guys make more videos on all your Cummins products?
