Banks Ram-Air Intake System

Banks Ram-Air Intake System; Incl. Filter/Housing/Ducting/Intake Pieces/Clamps/Hardware;

Enclosed housing keeps out hot, power-robbing engine air; inhales cooler, denser outside air. Improves flow up to 31% for greater power and MPG; helps engine run cooler and cleaner. The giant filter flows more freely than the factorys highly dense paper filter, and the aerodynamic shape eliminates restrictions. Works seamlessly with stock sensors to not generate trouble codes. Accommodates engine movement for greater durability. Easy install; reusable filter is easy to access for monitoring and cleaning. (By contrast, the stock filter is difficult to access, not reusable, and when dirty, requires replacement of the whole expensive unit!) Unit is triple validated before the name Banks is stamped on. We test; the other guys Dont. Thats the Banks difference!
