Banks Ram-Air Intake:
Banks' revilutionary Ram-Air Intake System offers the reliability and durability of a factory intake yet delivers astonishing airflow. It flows up to 64% better than stock. The Ram-Air has a huge filter area (fewer filter clianings!), giant outlet, and the complete air filter housing with large side & bottom inlets. Banks Ram-Air collects and directs more power-producing cool, dense air to the engine, lowering EGTs and smoke and improving fuel economy, too! The lifetime cotton gauze filter traps the most dirt and debris. And Ram-Air is the only aftermarket intake with 4-1/2" bellows to accommodate engine movement. This prevents component damage and promotes reliable service life.
Each intake's effect has been measured on air density at the turbo compressor inlet. Intake temperatures will generally be higher than ambient conditions, but the more the system can duct cool air to the filter and preserve the cool temperature as the air is ducted to the turbo,the higher the air density ill be. In addition, there will commonly be a pressure drop as air travels through the filter and the duction due to any restriction htat is introduced. If the design of the system can minimize the restriction and the pressure loss, air density will be preserved.
The Scoop:
Banks' exclusive Super-Scoop is an add-on product to the ram-Air Intake System. Super-Scoop connects below the front bumper, forcing a big charge of cool, pressurized ram air into the Ram-Air Intake's air filter housing. Because the air is drawn from outside the engine compartment, it has greater density and makes more power than the warmer engine air.
Super-Scoop's cooler, denser air also improves fuel economy, reduces smoke and lowers exhaust gas temperatures! Rainwater and debris are funneled out of the bottom.
*This combination is for a standard bumper.
