Intake

With the right intercooler and air intake, you can boost your 6.0 Powerstroke’s performance and efficiency.

Placed between the single Garrett variable geometry turbocharger and the engine’s air inlet, a 6.0 Powerstroke intercooler can help cool air before it hits the cylinders. Not only does an intercooler increase horsepower and aid engine efficiency, it helps keep fuel from premature combustion and prevents damage.

Another way to gain performance is with a new air intake. Offering increased airflow and efficiency, a new intake can help increase horsepower and torque as well as improve fuel economy.

With this generation of the Ford turbo-diesel V-8, you may run into issues with 6.0 Powerstroke intercooler boots. Symptoms of a bad intercooler boot include higher exhaust gas temperatures, low boost, low power, and excessive sooty exhaust smoke.

Give your truck a boost with a new 6.0 intercooler upgrade, new boots, or an intake from Prosource Diesel.
