Banks Power Monster-Ram Turbo Inlet Elbow - 2017-2025 L5P Duramax - RAW

Turbo Inlet Horn, Intake Manifold

42792-N
The Banks Monster-Ram Turbo Inlet for the 2017-2025 Duramax L5P is the only intake elbow that outperforms stock without the destructive effects of turbo surge. More than a year in development, the Monster-Ram increases air mass flow to the compressor. This results in slower turbo shaft speed and a reduction in time to boost. With slower shaft speeds, throttle response is improved, and turbo life is increased.

Description

TURBO INDUCTION PERFECTION

With 18 months of development and over 40 prototypes tested, the Banks Monster-Ram for the Duramax L5P is more than just attractive. It's turbo induction perfection.

Every facet from inlet and outlet size, orientation and location of the PCV connection, and down to the angle of the ported shroud interface had to be dialed in to exacting tolerances.

Mass Air Flow has been improved by almost 12% by removing stock restrictions at the turbo inlet all while preventing destructive turbo compressor surge and maintaining emissions compliance.

The Monster-Ram's propriety design reduces pressure loss by 18.67% at the compressor inlet which results in an impressive 6.01lb/min gain in Mass Airflow verses stock. Benefits include improved throttle response, lower shaft speed, and increased turbo life.

SUPERIOR ENGINEERING

To improve airflow to your turbo, a large organic shape is used compared to stock.

Areas on the factory inlet that choke down are widened. Abrupt changes to that airflow have been smoothed to provide the least resistance and pressure loss.

With overall flow area increased by an impressive 17%, the turbo inlet side of the Monster-Ram was the most engineering intensive part to design.

The geometry of the anti-surge ring has been painstakingly engineered to redirect this airflow back into the compressor wheel, thereby damping compressor surge.
