BOLT-ON POWER
Gale Banks has been designing engines and perfecting cold air intake systems for over 60 years. Long before he found Diesel, Gale was the expert in forced induction gas engines. The new Tacoma intake system allowed him to return to his roots. The result is nothing short of impressive. The new Ram-Air intake delivers real horsepower gains you can feel, all from a simple bolt-on system.
Thanks to a reduction in pressure loss over the stock intake, air mass is increased into the turbo inlet. This denser air makes the turbo's job easier. Turbo lag is reduced and boost comes on sooner, widening the engine's working RPM range.
The Ram-Air Effect
Taking advantage of the fast-moving air hitting the nose of the truck, the Banks Ram-Air effectively supercharges your turbo.
As air density inside the Ram-Air intake increases with vehicle velocity, it takes some of the workload away from your turbo. In other words, it can create the same intake air density at a lower compressor shaft speed, allowing your turbo to work more efficiently while improving throttle response.
Massive Filter Sized Right
The massive Ram-Air filter extends service intervals by collecting more dust within its deep pleats before causing restriction.
Filter and intake housing volumes have been optimized to ensure the incoming ram-air is evenly distributed around the filter. This not only maximizes air flow into the turbo but also fully utilizes the entire filter medium for dust collection.
Cobra Head Inlet Optimizes Flow
The unique cobra-head style inlet maintains the full cross-sectional area of the filter outlet, expanding the filter outlet size from the stock's 2.75" to a massive 5" filter outlet.
It also uses much gentler changes in both shape and direction. This helps maintain intake air velocity by preventing boundary layer separation, allowing your turbo to work at peak efficiency.
About This Product
Adds an impressive dyno-tested +18.3 hp and +17.7 lb-ft. Thanks to the increased air density to the turbo inlet, you'll see improved fuel economy. The enclosed housing keeps out power-robbing hot air. The Banks Big-Ass filter outflows stock, captures finer debris, and extends service intervals.

When you think about cold air intakes, there are two main components to consider. First is air filtration. When comparing oiled filters to dry filters the oiled will always filter out more particulate than the dry filter will. The added oil allows the cotton fibers in the filter element to trap more particulate matter as the air passes through it. The downfall is that in dusty environments the oil filters tend to get dirty quicker than the dry filter will.
The second component to consider on a cold air intake is performance, or how much air flow it allows. From the tests that we have seen, there is no difference in air flow between an oiled filter or a dry filter, if they are both clean. However, as we stated before the oiled filter will catch more particulate and become dirty quicker than the dry filter will. As a filter becomes dirtier, its performance decreases due to excess particulate matter restricting the air flow. Therefore, a dry filter will provide more performance over a longer period of time than an oiled filter will.
For daily driven trucks we recommend oiled filters, unless the truck is driven in an extremely dusty environment. We feel that the extra filtration power added by the oil is worth sacrificing the 1 or 2 extra horsepower you might get from using a dry filter.
