When Banks engineers set out to design a Ram-Air intake for the 2017-19 Ford 6.7L Super Duty, they had one seemingly impossible challenge: to achieve higher air density at the turbo inlet than all competitors while keeping the airbox in the stock location behind the battery.

As Power Stroke owners know, the battery is located near the front corner of the engine bay. This means air must pass above and/or below the battery to the airbox behind it. S&B chose to relocate the battery by having the customer attach a piece of supplied angle-iron to the thin firewall, cantilevering it over the engine. In our opinion, the battery is much too heavy and poses a danger if it were to break loose and fall. After all, many trucks see off-road conditions.

These requirements would set our Mechanical Engineering team on a year-long mission of design, research and development, and on and off-road testing.

The Banks Ram-Air out-flows and out-performs aFe and S&B with a 49% gain in MAF on the flow bench, and a 40% gain in intake air density when measured in real-world drive testing where temperature and humidity become involved. And best of all, it's 50-state emissions compliant. CARB E.O. D-161-132
