Intake Elbows
Fastcore has taken a look at the Ford 6.0L intake elbow and come out with an improved CFM+ elbow that introduces Flo-CV technology, which, from what we've gathered, basically reduces inner wall vacuum and outer wall stagnation. We're not sure if you'll notice the gain in torque or horsepower or even fuel economy, but we'd be willing to give it a shot since a smoother intake usually leads to better engine efficiency.
