High Pressure Oil Crossover

Hey Guys.....
Thinking About Installing A High Pressure Oil Crossover Hose.
Seems Like A Simple Thing To Do And It's Function Makes Sense.
I Am Wondering If I'll Notice Any Improvement In Performance ?

Anyone Done This To Their 7.3 And What Are Your Comments

You'll notice a BIG difference in idle quality. Much smoother and quieter. I use one myself and highly recommend it.

I recommend the Stainless Steel Hard Line HPX. You can get it at ITP Diesel.

i just installed ITP diesel's stainless steel line that HeatStroked mentioned. it was $72 with shipping. installation was a breeze, and it is well worth it. alot smoother idle and i think its quieter, especially on cold morning startups. less "injector knock"

I've had mine in for about a month. It smoothed the idle on cold mornings. I like it.

I need pics too Strokin_it. If i'm looking at the right nut on the driver side, it is very close to the turbo housing. Is this the right one?

WELL GENTLEMEN... ORDERED MY CROSSOVER.
WENT TO THE SITE WWW.ITPDIESEL.COM AND COULD NOT SEE THE PART IN THEIR PAGES. NOTICED THAT THE CROSSOVER THEY HAD FOR UP TO 97 WAS MADE BY KCM DIESEL PERFORMANCE.

SO ..... WENT TO WWW.KCMDIESELPERFORMANCE.COM AND WA LA.

ORDER A STAINLESS STEEL HPX CROSSOVER.... 60 DOLLARS + 5 DOLLARS SHIPPING.

HOPE THIS IS THE SAME AS MENTIONED FROM ITP DIESEL

NOW ..... WAIT FOR IT TO COME SO I CAN INSTALL IT.

MEAN WHILE ...... WIFE COMES IN AND IT'S " WHAT ARE YOU BUYING NOW ? "
AHH AHH ..... " NOTHING HONEY "

SHHH ...... SHHHH

It is the same line. I have one too. The stainless line is the only one (of three) I've had that didn't leak.
