    A young engineer joined Rolls Royce and increased the power of the V12 Merlin engine fitted to the British Spitfire fighter aircraft. If I remember correctly they increased the power by 30% by redesigning the air intake.

      ​@@JonBecker81From what I am hearing is that most of the DEF we get is coming from Russia and its made from pig urine if this is true but that's why its so expensive to buy because we don't make it here in the states . I've heard this from 2 people I know that have diesel trucks one who works at a Ford dealership and owns a Ford diesel & the other who owned a Dodge ram diesel truck that didn't have the Cummins engine but some V8 I think it was that he had some shop take all the DEF stuff off of it and he started to have all kinds of issues with it where the crank sensor went bad & it stopped running on him and he took it in to the Dodge dealership and they had a upgrade where they could use the cam sensor upgrade so it would run again because changing the crank sensor is a pain in the ass & when they went to do this upgrade they couldn't because this guy he used wiped the computer and the dealership couldn't do this upgrade so my friend had to haul his truck back home and ended up bringing it to another friend of mine who has a lift to pull the transmission out to change the crank timing sensor by the flywheel of the engine & he ended up buying the exhaust pipe and all the crap it needed to run the DEF again because this guy who working on it kept it all plus to top it off he had to buy a brand new computer for it because this hack he used wiped the computer clean so it would shut all of the DEF off for this upgrade. Once he got this expensive headache done he sold the truck to a dealership and got rid of it and said he was going to buy a Cummins because they weren't having these issues like this other diesel Dodge truck engine was having . I can't remember what or who were building these engines for Dodge but it definitely wasn't a Cummins but some foreign company . I rode in this truck and it had good power and the fuel mileage was really good but once it crashed it was a nightmare he said & very expensive to change it back to stock again and he's lucky because what he & this shop did was illegal as hell because our government doesn't want people messing with the emissions on the new diesel engines and if you get caught you can get a huge fine plus jail time but what's funny is our military diesel trucks don't have to comply with any emissions standards .

People ask why I said because of their engineering and because of their zero returns I had very very very very very very few in the 15 years that I had to return anything. All their products are engineered and designed I've been to their factory and plant in Azusa I've taken their certificate programs and I'll stand behind him 100% and it was so hard to speak to customers about why you needed to do a high ran intake expand your intercooler before you did a tuner etc..

    RAM will VOID your warranty in a New York second when they see that on your truck. Ask me how I know. My truck had 1300 miles on it when I upgraded to the Banks Monster Ram intake. I took my truck to the dealer for the first oil changed and the area service manager for Ram saw it and flagged me. They made me put my truck back to stock to get my warranty back ($1200) so I did but they didn't keep their word. Still NO Warranty. So Fvck Ram, I put the Banks back on and added everything they make for a 2022 3500. I bout it all. My truck runs good and I've NEVER been back to the dealer for anything. Not even when my wife needed a new car. She wanted a Jeep but she got a C8 Corvette instead. I love my truck But I HATE Stellantis. BANKS for the WIN!!

    I have this exact Monster Ram on my two 6.7 Cummins. ABSOLUTELY the single best upgrade.... ESPECIALLY for a stock engine.
    I also have the equivalent on mytwo 5.9 pickups. Heater grid is not an issue there, but improves spool-up and mpg even more than for the 6.7 engines.
    PS, it does not increase HP or air flow, ie CFM. It broadens the power band by spooling the turbo faster & sooner. The head limits the air flow, so this increases the volume of air, because it's compressed air.
    Bottom line; it literally makes a noticeable improvement.

      We don't offer one yet. We are still developing and testing the Ram Air intake and the Derringer for the 2024+ L5P Duramax. The 2024+ L5P Duramax trucks have new updates for emissions regulations and new computer systems. Because of these changes, they are even more sensitive to any major changes like air flow rate and temp. We must work with these changes, and unfortunately, that has forced us to change harness and programming on the MAF module that is included with the Ram Air intake. It's coming this year.

      I installed mine 3 years ago. I have had no problem passing Utah emissions. Banks provides the CARB compliance number on a sticker. The same sticker Dave stuck on the Monster Ram in the video. Also, if you have an issue with the emissions guy, Banks will go to bat for you to educate them.

    I put A monster ram on my 2017 ram 6.7 as a precautionary measure because of the heater grid issue and it was amazing. I towed a loaded trailer 10,000 lbs plus 2,000 pounds in the bed from the west coast 1500 miles over US 40 and it felt like I was empty. The power increase was unbelievable everything else was stock non deleted.

    I deleted, tuned and added a complete HSP diesel performance system to my 14 LML Duramax plus 5” exhaust, PPE 3 1/2” down pipe and 165 lift pump. Gained tons of horsepower major increase in MPG and most of all peace of mind. No more egr, no other bull crap to ruin an engine.
    Not “50 state compliant” but I refuse to neuter AND cut short the life of my truck.

    Had my 2014 6.7L with 78,000 miles changed over to the Monster Ram. The first thing I noticed was at idle the engine was breathing. I bought the truck used and had always thought it sounded like it was gasping for air at idle. My mechanic didn't want me to spend this much money, but after he installed and saw the difference on my engine, he is now pushing the Banks system. And he said the factory grid heater bolts was still tight, but the carbon build up was really bad.

  • @danthurman9076
    @danthurman9076 20 днів тому

    Look inside the new Banks monster ram, nice and smooth, even roughly finished reduces air flow capacity. Dave I had an early 5.9 Cummins, about 1987 not in a truck but in a Massey Combine, inter cooled, that was rated at 220 engine horsepower. I don't think it had a grid heater. Let me tell you this, it made amazing power for sure. Full tank of corn , running 6.5mph in 140 bushe to the acre corn unloading on the go with a 6 row 30 inch centers corn head. In extremely cold weather I had to give it a little shot of WD 40 before starting,that Cummins would come to life Dave. Massey Combine went into receivership in early 1988 if I remember correctly. Oliver designed the machine but never produced 1 machine, they were in receivership 1985 or 1986. Now they make a bit bigger Cummins for the Dodge Ram I see from your videos. Clean air supply is critical for any engine to efficient and have long life. I was involved with pre cleaners for combust air back when the IH 400 series engines were new,it was dryer than a popcorn fart,the soil was exposed all winter without much snow or rain,it was a dust cloud we worked in, visibility was made 20 yards. About 5 hours and the air filter element meter was showing clogged filter. A new outer element was $90 man back in 1970 ! It had an inner safety element for a safety. The beginning of disposable air filters,if you tried to blow out with air you put a hole in it ! Block man from IH was cool to talk with and learn how to from. His exact words, don't ever remove the outer element without a new replacement, the seals on the ends of the element are designed to seal 1 time. Looking at the indentations he was correct, I saw several engines being tore down because of dirt in the engine,the rings go first, next it's hard starting in hot weather. These tractors were still under warranty when this happened. Cutting corners cost the owner the warranty claim.

    On lifted trucks, instead of letting the air out of the tires and potentially damaging the tires I just take the front wheels off since it's already get up on the hoist. It takes 5 minutes to just remove the front wheels, than you can drop the truck almost right down to the rotors.
