additional u-clamp is provided with this pipe for
hanging.
install the chrome tip and chrome tailpipe
heat shield on the tailpipe as shown in Figure
2
. tip may be slid in or out on the tailpipe to match
the body width.
NOTE: If possible, leave tailpipe within 2” of end
of chrome tip inside the tip. This will protect the
chrome from changing color from high exhaust heat.
Shorten tailpipe if required.
remove plastic air intake silencer from air
inlet hoses between air filter assembly and
engine.
using a hacksaw, cut the tapered sections off
the silencer as shown in Figure
3
. reinstall
the silencer in the air intake hoses using the original
clamps. this increases air flow through the intake
system.

the banks stinger cold air induction components
are designed to extend the factory air intake path
so that cooler outside air can be picked up from
directly behind the vehicle’s grille. these components
include a molded Banks super-scoop™, 4” diameter
flexible tubing, Ram-air filter cover and installation
hardware. Figure
4.
shows a typical hook-up of
the air intake components as they tie to the factory
system. the super-scoop also serves as a water
separator to drain out any rain water that may enter
through the grille.
the banks stinger cold air induction package
is intended to fit a number of motorhome body
configurations. because each coach builder has a
different layout of behind-the-grille components,
there can be no one set installation procedure for the
banks ram-air package. the following instructions
are intended as a guideline for installing the ram-
air system. also, some coach builders may have
installed difficult to relocate components (such as
air conditioning freon piping or heater hoses) in the
areas where the banks ram-air is normally mounted.
In these cases, the installer will have to find an
alternate location for the Ram-air components, or
omit these pieces that are impossible to mount.
remove the air cleaner housing cover. replace
the factory paper element and filter cover
with the banks ram-air filter element and cover. use
new 6mm x 40mm bolts, don’t overtighten.
determine a location for the banks super-
scoop. it should be placed as low as possible
directly behind the grille, with the air inlet opening
pointing straight ahead. If the grille is at an angle,
the super-scoop should be trimmed at an angle,
whenever possible, to place the air inlet opening
