Gale Banks explains the science behind turbo drive pressure and how a small reduction in backpressure after the turbine results in a substantial reduction in backpressure before the turbine. The patented negative-backpressure system cuts backpressure by 89% from the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and 9% at the turbine inlet liberating otherwise lost horsepower"

"Setting the world record for fastest naturally aspirated gas pickup. Banks history is rich with trophies and awards not only for diesel accomplishments but for gasoline performance as well. One such example was the naturally aspirated Banks GMC S-15 Syclone LSR (Land Speed Record). Thats not to say that the original idea wasnt to turbocharge the engine in the Syclone. Gale Banks' original ideal configuration was a full-size Sierra using all-wheel drive for better traction and more evenly distributed power on the salt. And all that power would have come from a twin-turbocharged big-block 502."

"CFM airflow An engine pumps cubic feet of air per minute (CFM) but what makes horsepower is the air mass within that volume. The more you compress air the higher its density assuming you've cooled the air properly. Dense air packs more oxygen in the same given volume. In other words air density is king. The Banks Monster-Ram provides an 88.3% increase in mass airflow over stock meaning more air density makes it into the cylinder even though the engine is still pumping the same CFM.

"Stop making these air intakes Fact Check Air Density is a topic that Gale Banks has professed for over six decades. The volume of the air your engine inhales does not determine its power output. Air density does. Air density is the amount of air within a given volume and is determined by pressure temperature and humidity. The greater the air density the more power the engine will make. An exposed air filter under the hood is great as long as the hood is up and it's able to draw cool dry air. But once the hood is closed the air it inhales becomes superheated which is far less dense.

"Stop this wives' tale about Cummins engines Fact Check Many claim that there's no reason to upgrade the intake elbow because the stock elbow outflows the stock Cummins head." This is false and it's time Gale sets the record straight. There's plenty of overhead in the stock head. If there weren't upgrading the turbo would have no effect. At a given RPM the volume (CFM) that the engine pumps is a fixed number but the mass air flow (MAF) can still be increased. Thats where the Monster-Ram comes in. The massive free-flowing intake elbow increases mass flow over stock by 88.3% at the same pressure"

"Prevent this turbocharger phenomenon. With a larger outlet and a smooth organic shape the Monster-Ram increases air density to your 2017-2024 Duramax L5P's turbo compressor. This results in lower shaft speeds and less time to reach the ECMs target boost. In other words better throttle response. The L5Ps Borg Warner turbo has an anti-surge feature half-machined into the compressor cover and half-machined into the intake elbow. This anti-surge geometry prevents airflow from reversing direction sending powerful pulses out of the turbo's compressor and backward through the intake tube. Many have"

"2024 Duramax can't reach its torque peak The [----] Duramax advertises a torque peak of [---] lb-ft at [----] RPM but as Gale Banks found its not usable.

"Ram 6.7L Grid Heater Bolt Failure Jiggle Test Here's how you test to see if the nut and bolt in your factory RAM 6.7L Cummins grid heater is loose. If the post jiggles it indicates that the nut and bolt on the bottom are loose and should be inspected by a mechanic immediately. Over time the bolt can deform under normal use elongating and deforming like a stalactite from the roof of a cave. Failure to inspect the bolt could result in it falling off into the intake manifold and rolling downhill ultimately falling into cylinder #6. An early sign of grid heater failure is a P2609 trouble code."

"The Hidden Time Bomb Inside Every RAM Cummins Due to heat cyclesand a 30Hz vibration at idle a fastener in the 2007-2024 RAM 6.7L Cummins stock air intake heater (grid heater) loosens arcs melts and falls into the intake manifold. Gravity forces the $1 bolt to roll downhill into cylinder #6. In many cases this results in severe piston valve and head damage or total engine failure. While hundreds have caught it in time like Joe others have replaced pistons repaired cylinders and heads. Some have replaced entire engines. The Banks Monster-Ram not only eliminates the grid heater assembly"

"Every other 2020-25 Duramax intake is just cosmetic without this. If you own a 2020-25 Duramax you can't improve the performance of the air intake system without setting a check engine lightunless you have the patented Banks Air Mass Control Module. In this video we reveal the hidden problem every 2020+diesel Duramax owner facesand why all aftermarket intakes (except one) are just expensive cosmetic changes. Then we walk you through how we engineered a solution. Without our Air Mass Control technology all other intakes are forced to match stock airflow and pressure keeping the MAF sensor"

"This is a lot of soot. Let's make it stop. No diesel owner EGR. But for those of us RAM owners who cant delete our exhaust gas recirculation systems were stuck with soot going back into the intake system and clogging the factory horn and grid heater. And the longer you own the truck the harder you work it the worse the airflow restrictions get. Power and fuel economy go into the toilet. Stop soot from clogging your intake elbow and grid heater by replacing them with a Banks Monster-Ram. diesel truck cummins ram dodge chevy chevrolet GMC GM duramax powerstroke ford super duty [----] [----] towing"
