I read somewhere that the plastic upper intake madness we have now on the 17 thru 19 is a noise cancellation matrix …I guess ford thinks the diesel owners want there trucks to sound like sewing machines…I’m hoping the pusher intake lets me hear a different tone in the engine bay.
i am also curious how the egr flow change on the pusher will effect Nox. Right now, the stock does 6.7 egr piping makes the flow do a 180 …curious what having a straight line Venturi type flow will do.
and…part of the delay in me finishing my methonal injection install is that I don’t want bloody knuckles so once I get rid of all these meat hooks, I can work in peace.

Same question here. I would think a metal intake over the turbo would transfer more heat from the turbo to the air change vs a plastic intake. I want to say it was heat from the turbo that required a metal upper intake on the 2020+ trucks.

——————-
The all-new Pusher Powerflow Intake Manifold / Turbo Inlet Package addresses the weakest airflow component of the 6.7L Powerstroke engine since its inception: the anemic factory intake manifold.
On the stock intake manifold when air passes through the throttle valve it is immediately disrupted by the EGR boss followed by a solid wall – forcing it to be directed in nearly a 360-degree spiral pattern. With the Pusher Powerflow design, we’ve redirected the EGR flow to join the intake stream at an acute angle and have eliminated the “wall” entirely, netting a whopping 66% increase in airflow.
Because the stock turbo inlet is integrated into the factory intake manifold on the 2015 and up model year trucks a new turbo inlet is necessary to install any form of new intake manifold. The Pusher Powerflow Turbo Inlet design results in a 15% increase in airflow over stock while still maintaining the factory mounting points and CCV plumbing.
The best part - upgrading your engine with our Powerflow intake manifold delivers maximum and perfectly equalized air flow to each cylinder head while also providing provisions for your factory emissions equipment.
Our system works with your factory equipment - no tuning required. Just bolt on and go.
- The entire system is constructed around mandrel-bent steel tubing with CNC-machined sensor ports and flanges for an insanely rugged system designed and built to last the life of your truck.
- Fully TIG welded with precise settings to achieve optimum penetration without compromising airflow.
- Compatible with our popular cold and hot side charge tubes for the 6.7L Powerstroke platform, as well as all major cold air intake designs currently on the market.
- Available in six powder coat colors, or in natural finish ready for you to custom coat.
- Includes all necessary hardware and OEM quality gaskets along with full color instructions.
- Reduced EGT’s
- Improved fuel economy
- Increased turbo spool and throttle response
- Easier access to engine components

Reduced EGT's: How much?
Improved fuel economy: How much?
Increased turbo spool and throttle response: How much?
Are these trivial claims with a stock engine with full emissions or deleted and tuned?
With a 66% increase in air flow on the intake, not sure the DPF can support a 66% increase in air flow on the output side of the engine
