About This Product
It's all bigger: Large 3-1/2 inch boost tubes, Thicker core with 27 percent more flow volume. Superior aluminum end tank design. Includes Monster-Ram® intake and boost tubes. Increases air density for higher continuous power.
Specifications
Superior to stock, everything about Banks Techni-Cooler Intercooler system is bigger. It includes mandrel-bent 3.5" high-flow boost tubes, large high-efficiency all-aluminum end tanks, a wide-open inlets and outlets, 20% thicker core area with a 27% improvement in volume, and a colossal super-flow Monster-Ram® intake manifold.
Techni-Cooler dramatically increases the cooling capacity by balancing the richer fuel mixture with greater airflow and cooler, denser air. Denser air has more oxygen, which improves combustion as well as engine efficiency.
Result: Higher continuous power and more power at any exhaust gas temp (EGT), better fuel economy and lower EGTs. That's a truckload of benefits! Banks Techni-Cooler delivers the maximum reduction in boost air temperature with a minimal loss of boost pressure. It doesn't get any cooler than Techni-Cooler! Mounting hardware included.
Why It's Better
BOOST INCREASE OVER STOCK
This is the first measure of intercooler performance. If an aftermarket product can't deliver a boost increase over the stock unit, there's no point in even opening the box. All the units tested better than stock with Banks the clear winner... So far, so good.
AIR DENSITY INCREASE
This is the reason for an intercooler in the first place. Boosted air that's colder packs more oxygen. Cooler intake air and more oxygen lowers EGT's, improves economy and unlocks your fuel's power making ability. Measuring air density gain over stock is the most vital aspect of intercooler performance. This is where the Banks patented density measurement comes into play. Banks and AFE are both in the game but BD cooled so poorly that it actually lost density... WRONG!
AIR FLOW-THROUGH TO THE RADIATOR
If an intercooler blocks your engine's radiator from the incoming airflow it needs, the resulting high temps cause the ECM to cut back fuel, leaving you with de-rated power and heat-related breakdowns. The point is to improve your vehicle's performance, not cripple it. Spearco and AFE's bar and plate cores block so much air to your radiator that it's like putting cardboard in front of it. That's a fail for both.
FINAL RESULTS
The final rating sums the three results above with a weighing of 20% for boost gain, 60% for density improvement and 20% for air flow-through to the radiator. When you add up the results of these tests it's easy to see why Banks comes out way ahead: the Banks Techni-Cooler will produce quicker throttle response, higher continuous power at any exhaust gas temperature, better economy and a more reliable rig. All benefits and no compromises.

Reviews
First Banks order
"Purchased the intercooler upgrade to repair damage to original system. Had a few minor issues like missing gaskets. Replacement parts shipped quickly. During the install found I was shipped a two of the same mounting brackets for the intercooler, they are not all the same) will be calling to get that corrected. But after installing there was a noteable increase in throttle response and after several days I can say I am very pleased with this product and looking forward to adding more Banks products to my truck"
Unbelievable tightness of response and
"Unbelievable tightness of response and overall power! So much more than what I had anticipated. Clear horsepower increase which is why I purchased the unit. The 05 Ram 2500 with 5. 9l has a new lease on life. The odometer just turned 500k, so for this monumental timeline, it seemed like a Banks upgrade would be just the ticket to celebrate. My engine thanked me by performing like a new kid on the block! Thanks Gayle and Crew!"
Gale Banks Intercooler Upgrade Kit
"As Always Banks Engineering is the best!! Went in precisely as it was supposed to. Instructions were spot on. Quality is top notch. As an ASE Master auto Technician my 40 year Career I have Installed Gale Banks products many times, on my vehicles and My customers and friends. This Intercooler upgrade is Everything Gale Banks claims it will is. I believe it is a fair price point for what you receive."
Product was everything I Wanted
"Product was everything I Wanted and the quality was absolutely outstanding! Performance wise the throttle response is noticeable in the pedal, increased power with less effort."
06 Megacab
"Bought truck from original owner with 260,000 miles. Had six-gun tuner and banks brake along with aftermarket air box. Decide to add intercooler with ram intake and boost tubes. Runs better and EGT came down. A little more turbo whine but that's okay. Oly hiccup is truck has aftermarket A/C condenser with fixed mounting tabs, so I had to fabricate some brackets."
Perfect.
"Perfect."
Less pedal more power
"Cruising has improved and I no longer have to babysit the egt's in my g56 6spd truck. Works very very well. may of even added some sound to the whole party."
Lower my EGTS
"Lower my EGTS"
Big Improvement over Stock
"Finally got my intercooler installed after a bit of a delay on my part. I drive a '06 Dodge 3500. When you hear that it's a tight fit, believe it. Noticed right away that my turbo spools quicker. My fuel mileage has increased as well. I'm a believer in Banks products and can't wait to add more"
Q&A
- How much boost pressure will the intercooler handle for a 2006 ram 5.9 Cummins?
- These systems are tested to 150.
