DESCRIPTION:
The Ram-Air cold air intake adds a tested best-in-class airflow of 782 CFM, a gain of 82% over stock, and 21.6% over its closest competitor. The system produces lower temperature air at higher pressure providing air density right at the throttle inlet. As a result, the Banks Ram-Air system boasts a 38% air density improvement compared to the stock intake, two times the increase of its closest competitor. This lower temperature air provides more thermal headroom before the engine hits the detonation limit of the fuel, resulting in more power on hot days.
Its durable molded plastic housing is fully enclosed, keeping power-robbing hot air in the engine bay where it belongs and not in the intake system. At the heart of the Ram-Air system is Banks’ new Big-Ass Filter element which is the largest and least restrictive in its class. Like all Banks Ram-Air intakes, the system was designed using computational fluid dynamics, followed by rigorous testing on the flow bench, dynamometer and on-road driving.
Available in both oiled and dry variations, Banks’ new Big-Ass filters offer 672 square inches of surface area, 21% more than their closest competitor. This allows for greater dirt collection and more miles between cleaning. The Ram-Air advantage becomes even more pronounced the dirtier the filter gets. Competitive filters clog up and become restrictive long before the Big-Ass Filter. Superior filtration is accomplished by using a proprietary multi-layer woven cloth that keeps even the finest dirt and debris out of the intake system while providing maximum airflow.
The Ram-Air also offers an appealing growl under acceleration while utilizing a Helmholtz resonator to eliminate the annoying drone found with competitive intake systems.

Will a Ram-Air intake void my warranty?
The Ram Air Intake is a high-flow aftermarket intake. Treat the intake as you would with altering the truck’s suspension, wheels, or tires. Most dealerships understand accessories like upgraded suspension systems are harmless, however, some dealers are not as forgiving. Always check with your service advisor prior to dropping off your truck. Are they ok with aftermarket accessories? If they don’t give you a concrete answer, call another dealership or service center. There are plenty of aftermarket-friendly dealerships.
What is the difference between oiled and dry filters?
An oiled filter typically uses fewer layers of filter media because the oil works to capture debris while a dry filter requires additional layers in order to capture the same amount of debris. While both styles capture a similar amount of debris, the oiled filter will flow about 3% better.
Should I buy an oiled or dry filter?
We recommend oiled filters for drivers who find themselves on paved roads the majority of the time. Dry filters are especially useful in dusty environments. Oiled filters are good at capturing dust. And, in an off-road environment, they can be “too good” at capturing dust, requiring frequent cleanings. If you do find yourself in a dusty environment, we also suggest a pre-filter to help extend the duration between needed cleanings.
How long is the service life between cleanings for the filters? Can they be cleaned?
Both oiled and dry filters can be cleaned. Dry filters can go up to about 20,000, whereas the oiled can go up to 30,000 miles before needing to be cleaned.
How do you protect against water for Jeep intakes?
We combat water intrusion in several ways:
1. Jeep rates both the Gladiator and Wrangler for 30 inches of water fording. The opening for the intake is above this, tucked in the engine compartment. There is no direct path from the grill to the intake housing compartment.
2. Our intake housing is designed with a water dump in mind. So even if it was to get in, it will not harm the engine. It will drain out
3. We have a small drain build into the housing to prevent water from being sucked up and causing hydrolock. Additionally, there is a three defense design against water intrusion by having a smaller, second drain near the filter coupler sleeve.
