BOLT-ON POWER

Gale Banks has been designing engines and perfecting cold air intake systems for over 60 years. Long before he found Diesel, Gale was the expert in forced induction gas engines. The new Tacoma intake system allowed him to return to his roots. The result is nothing short of impressive. The new Ram-Air intake delivers real horsepower gains you can feel, all from a simple bolt-on system. 
Wheel Horsepower
Wheel Torque

Thanks to a reduction in pressure loss over the stock intake, air mass is increased into the turbo inlet. This denser air makes the turbo's job easier. Turbo lag is reduced and boost comes on sooner, widening the engine's working RPM range.

Massive Filter & Cobra Head Inlet

The massive Ram-Air filter extends service intervals by collecting more dust within its deep pleats before causing restriction.
Filter Size
Cobra Inlet

The unique cobra-head style inlet tube allows for a large, low-restriction filter outlet, while maintaining a smooth radius down into the turbo inlet with the correct MAF reading for more horsepower and no check engine light.

I also have the Banks boost tube system
Turbo sound is 3x louder and throttle response is amazing, can’t wait for more Banks product to come out and put on my Tacoma.

Installed the Banks Ram-Air intake this week. Great quality, instructions were perfect, and took around 30-minutes including removal of the stock system. Plenty of turbo noise and flutter with Banks! It sounds fun now ? Did not waste any time ordering the boost tubes, and looking forward to their turbo...

2024 Tacoma TRD
Just installed on my 2024 Tacoma. Looks amazing, easy to install!! I only trust Banks with performance parts. Seems like they really do their homework. No high pitch constant whistling as with other intakes Ive used. Excited to see how it performs and probably will install the boost tubes at some...

2025 tacoma cold air intake
The install was very easy and the fit was as good as oem. I gained about 2 mpg and the truck seems to run a little more smooth and just accelerate easier. Very satisfied with the product. Will probably purchase the boost tube kit next.
