banks big head?

i own a 2001 PSD F250 4x4 with an Edge programer and 4 in exhaust. i have been hearing about disconnecting the wastegate acatuator. what kind of performance gains are there and what are the benefits? i have been considering the banks big head acuator but i dont know the benefits or if it is even worth spending the money on. any advice helps.

So basicaly you should just disable the wastagate line instead of blowing your money on banks stuff. I like free stuff.

wastegate unhooked?

i just unhooked the wastegate on my 2001PSD. i didnt notice a change, which way do you leave the arm on the wastegate? i also tow an 11,000lbs trailer with this truck, will this affect the EGT's and, or the towing capabilities?
