High Ram Intake?

[Spunkys Ram]

Does anyone have conclusive results on the benefits of the Banks Hi-Ram manifold. I am looking for dyno info on before and after installation.

This is what I posted back a page. I have the dyno sheet to prove it, I just don't have a scanner to scan it.





I have tried this on my '02 and it did give me 20 more horsepower. NO KIDDING. Now I'm not fond of Banks myself either (that's another story). I was at a Dyno event last year with my truck and the shop owner had one on the shelf and asked me if I wouldn't mind trying it on my truck because he wasn't sure if it did help performance? I said sure (as long as I'm not obligated to buy it), and he was cool with that. So I bolted it on right after my 1st and 2nd run of 445 hp and 449hp 30+ lbs of boost(truck still on Dyno), took 20 minutes. Fired her up and went right back to it with a run of 469hp and EGT's 75 degrees lower. I was pretty impressed I had to say, dyno numbers proved it. I actually would have bought it right there but I didn't have the money(of course I would have had to grind the "BANKS" off and repaint it). So that's my story with the "Hi-Ram".

Are you sure the difference in horsepower is not attributable to the engine being warmer on the second run?

Clint at ATS says it flows just as good as the Banks highram. The price is going to be around 350. 00 it is a little steep but if you seen how it was made you would know why. Look at all of the ports for the good stuff

that is a ludicrous price ats is making a killing!

Well I took it off right after the second run and ran again and I was at the same horsepower as my first run. So in answer to your question, I'm going to have to say "No".
