ATS Arc-Flow intake

Will it fit with the oversized banks pipe from the intercooler to the intake? I think the pipe is oversized anyways

I need to get this banks crap off of my truck. Plus the ATS has a port for some go go juice...

I don't think so, don't you have the Banks hi ram if you've got the intercooler? I know Banks makes a seperate hi ram piece for the OEM intercooler so I'm guessing the ATS is made for the OEM piping not the oversized Banks. If your going to ditch the Technicooler and get a BD or something let me know, I could use a Technicooler!

I never thought about that. I could just sell the entire banks unit then get another intercooler and ATS intake...

Its BANKS Jk.

Nothing at all. I just get sick of getting asked to open the hood then guys are like "see I told you he had to be running the banks" Then I say no. Then they ask "why don't you like banks" See what I mean?

I really like the ATS intake and was hoping I could use it with the banks intercooler. I guess the other option would be to sand the banks hi-ram down like AK Ram did then drill and tap it.

see I told you he had to be running the banks
This sounds all too familiar.

Lucas,
You could always buy a boot that adapts one size to the other.

Something like this might work:

Justin,

Do you see any problem with choking the air down with that? Where do you get it? Thanks!

Luken,
Yeah, you would be creating another restriction by switching intake horns.

That hose is at www.intakehoses.com

I think you would be best served by having someone belt sand the banks letters smooth and then do a re-paint of the manifold to your desired color...

Certainly understand the predicament. ABC's idea is flat funny!

When we put the technicooler on my truck, one of the first things that was suggested by Joefarmer was to get the hi-ram in close proximity to a grinder. Once it got the royal treatment, off it went to get powder coated black.

Have fun!
