I've heard of em banks systems. They give ya a bunch of horsepower and low end torque but ya get whatcha pay for. I reckon the stinger costs bout 1800 bucks or more.

pro's - more power
con's - my wife says I can't get one right now...

It's high quality stuff. Also search the boards for "banks", a lot of guys got 'em. In the V10 forum you can hear what the Powerpack sounds like on a V10 (oh my!! ) Have fun!!

It replaces your stock clutch fan and with the Cyclone power fan, the power stoke only needs the fan running only 2% of the time so you are wastting power and robbing you of fuel. there are two sensor one modeling the water temp and the other look at the transmission temp...also during the fall,winter and soon spring I will kept the fan disengaged, this pass summer the fan kick in when it needed to cool the motor down....I order it though www.deiselpage.com it's also known as deisel injection sevice..I order all my parts thur them... or you can straight to www.usgear.com
