I want to get an intake for my Ford 350 6.0l, but i don't know what to look for. Any ideas? Something that is resistant to dust. Or do you know how to make one with the right materials? Bring it on.

1995 F-250 7.3 POWERSTROKE. I've read that by putting a 4.1k ohm resistor in series with the eot it will give better efficiency and power. Has anyone had experience with this, either good or bad.

I have a 97 7.3L PS. Bought myself an S&B intake/filter for x-mas. Easy install, works well, plenty of fresh air, less restriction & looks good. Now I'm looking for an exhaust. was looking @ motoblue/rpmoutlet.com but keep seeing bad reports about company. Thinking dimondeye, silverline or Banks. Any opinions about these???

i can tell you from my experience wqith the banks exhaust it sounds pretty good and flows very good. the main thing i dont like about it is its not very loud. unless you are standin on the go pedal. SO if you are looking to rattle windows and set off car alarms when yuo drive by i would cross banks off your list. MBRP sounds really good behind the 7.3 you might wanna check them out.
