Intake Manifold System

Air intake and intake manifold

I installed the Banks air intake and intake manifold on my 95 12V, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Materials were top-notch, and the design felt very well thought out. Very well packaged on both items! Air intake installation was straightforward. The instructions were clear, and all of the parts lined up exactly as they should. There were no fitment issues or surprises, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free and took all of 15 minutes. Throttle response is sharper, acceleration feels stronger, and there’s a definite improvement in overall engine smoothness. I also noticed a slightly deeper, more aggressive intake sound that really adds to the driving experience without being obnoxious. And the turbo noise is slightly more noticeable. On the intake manifold side, airflow feels significantly improved. The power delivery is more linear and consistent across the RPM range, and even at highway cruising speeds the engine feels more efficient and responsive. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied. Everything worked perfectly — no issues, just improved performance and reliability. If you’re looking to upgrade your truck’s breathing and get more out of your engine, the Banks air intake and intake manifold are absolutely worth it. Banks is a tried and true company and you can’t go wrong with Banks.

fits well

awesome

Great fit and finish

I'm glad I ordered this when I did. When I went to move the grid heaters to the new spacers I found one of the posts for the grids had been shorting out and had welded a nut to the post. Installing the twin ram has saved me from an engine rebuild.
