Intercooler Suggestions

I've been looking into buying an intercooler for my 1997 7.3L F-350. Right now, I'm leaning towards Banks, but I'm not sure what other brands there are and if there is one more preferred...

Banks is over priced. You are paying for the name not the product.

Does Chris send you the piping and those big fancy clamps, but not boots?

I thought it was just piping. Cool!
Are they like one piece welded setups where you only need 2 boots per pipe?
Or split into two sections so 6 boots?

Pipes and clamps, NO boots

2 pipes so you need the 6 boot kit
(2) spider to intake
(2) I/C to tubes
(2) Tubes to spider
