6.9L water separator replacement

I am thinking about replacing the water separator with something better. Is the Goldenrod separator decent. The price is very good - about 20+ dollars. The Racor get quite a bit of mention, but it seems pricey.

Precision Diesel in W. Bayblon NY Ph # 1 800-832-8844 knows more about Ford diesels than anyone on the planet. They have all kinds of kits to change things on these engines. One is a kit to replace and remount the water seperator/fuel filter from a 7.3. Give them a call and ask for Dan. He can answer any question anyone had regarding a Ford diesel.

The guys on the cable show 'Trucks' installed a part that was called a 'Turbinator' or something like that.
It separated the water as well as pulled any entrained air out of the fuel.
Has anyone out there had any experience with this?
