By replacing the stock grid heater with a high-flow billet intake plate, it prevents potential engine damage while delivering greater airflow to the cylinders. Monster-Ram is the only 50-state emissions-compliant intake elbow for Ram Cummins trucks, designed to raise boost without increasing turbine drive pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a larger and less restrictive design than stock, the Monster-Ram delivers oxygen-rich air more efficiently for quicker throttle response, optimized air distribution, and improved overall performance. It outflows stock by more than 88.3%, featuring a 3-3\/8 inch inlet and four 1\/8 inch NPT ports for sensors. The system uses stock mounting points and includes a proprietary fuel line along with all required hardware. Available finishes include red powder-coated, black, or raw aluminum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen paired with Banks’ High-Flow Heater and Billet Intake Plate, airflow increases from 38.6 lbs\/min MAF (stock) to 72.7 lbs\/min MAF, nearly doubling efficiency. The high-flow vertical coil heater maintains cold-start performance while eliminating the restriction of the stock grid heater. This combination provides instant throttle response, stronger acceleration, and more power potential for higher horsepower applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped using advanced CFD, dyno testing, and on-road validation, the Monster-Ram is engineered as a direct-replacement aluminum casting. Banks redesigned the No. 1 fuel line to remove airflow obstructions caused by the stock elbow design, allowing greater flow and efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExpandable with four 1\/8 inch NPT ports for sensors, the Monster-Ram is ideal for monitoring performance. Tested against competitors, it delivers more than twice the improvement of the closest alternative, making it a top choice for performance and reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Banks Power","offers":[{"title":"Natural","offer_id":51130933346587,"sku":"42798","price":718.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Red Powder-Coated Finish (+$30)","offer_id":51130933379355,"sku":"42798-RPC","price":748.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black Powder-Coated Finish (+$30)","offer_id":51130933412123,"sku":"42798-BPC","price":748.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/5757\/3147\/files\/Raw_Composite_PlateOnSide_C_c4fc92e9-4ddf-45b7-884f-7069bfd539dc.jpg?v=1756594170","url":"https:\/\/wwmperformance.com\/products\/monster-ram-intake-and-killer-grid-heater-upgrade-2013-2018","provider":"WWM Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
