DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
-
The factory intake elbow on your 6.0L Powerstroke is a major airflow bottleneck, packed with restrictive emissions components that easily choke on heavy soot buildup.
-
The High-Flow EGR Intake Elbow Pipe is the ultimate performance breathing upgrade for your Ford Super Duty. this elbow features a smooth, completely unrestricted internal design that increases airflow by up to 80%. It eliminates turbo lag, delivers crisper throttle response.
Key Features
- Premium Material: Constructed from lightweight, high-strength aircraft-grade T-6061 aluminum that resists high boost pressure and corrosion.
- Massive 80% Airflow Increase: Features a smooth, mandrel-bent unrestricted internal design that maximizes fresh air delivery straight into your intake manifold.
- Sharper Throttle Response: Optimizes air volume and velocity into the combustion chamber, significantly shortening turbo spool-up time and sharpening throttle feel.
- Pre-Tapped 1/8" NPT Ports: Comes equipped with built-in 1/8 inch NPT ports, allowing for effortless installation of boost gauges, nitrous, or water-methanol nozzles.
FAQ
Q: What is the main difference between this aluminum elbow and the stock one?
A: The factory elbow is made of heavy cast iron or restrictive plastic with internal flaps that choke airflow and trap sticky soot. The elbow is made of smooth, mandrel-bent T-6061 aluminum, which drops weight and completely removes internal bottlenecks.
Q: What are the pre-tapped 1/8" NPT ports used for?
A: These ports are heavily desired by truck enthusiasts. They allow you to screw in a boost gauge sensor, or install water-methanol and nitrous oxide injection systems without needing to drill or tap your expensive aluminum parts.
Q: Will this kit cause a Check Engine Light (CEL)?
A: No, not by itself: This intake elbow is a physical piping upgrade. However, if you are removing the factory EGR valve assembly to install it, your truck's computer will require a custom tune (like an Minimaxx tuner) to turn off the emissions-related dashboard light.
Q: Why should I buy this High-Flow Intake Elbow along with an EGR Delete Kit?
A: When doing an EGR delete, you are already removing the top-end components. Replacing the restrictive factory elbow with this high-flow aluminum pipe right now takes zero extra effort, instantly freeing up engine breathability and maximizing your delete performance.
