Intake manifold?

Okay, first off, is the "Intake Manifold" called that? When I do a search for intake manifold, I get the intake elbow. How do I find what I am looking for, and are there any decent aftermarket options? I am not looking to build a race truck, but thought that there might be a decent option that improves performance, without too much additional cost when I do the studs.

Several options are out there, I'm not sure what practical impact they make unless you're pushing big power levels with a bigger turbo, but they exist:
ODawg Diesel Ported Intakes
6.0 Ported Intake Manifold PowerStroke Doctor
GR Diesel Ported Intake Manifold
Smeding Diesel - Intakes

Stock one for comparison, of if you want an original to keep when you send in a core:

I thought that Anthony was doing something with these at one time as well?
Maybe I'm thinking of something else, he has a ton of good videos out there I can't keep track of them all.

Anthony is doing one. It's pretty much just a quality egr delete. I have the Odawg SR3 and I can attest to the performance gains. Lowered EGT and there is a noticeable difference in acceleration in the mid range RPMs.

I can guarantee you that you will NOT find a larger intake than the ODAWG.

Oliver has his cast new and not a modified OEM unit. The manifold is huge and although it fits, it is monstrous.

I run one and I love it

I think I’d upgrade the turbo and just clean the intake before I dropped a grand on a bigger intake manifold.

Yeah, I am with you on that one.
