I am using a Banks intercooler with the wierd goodsneck on my 06 F-350. I called another manufacurer who makes a smooth 90 elbow and they said it was just to lower the pressure on that side of the turbo and to help lower egts. The banks works probably as good. I am getting ready to change out the turbo. I have a large exhaust system, good afe intake, Edge Platinum Pro with Attitude and the hot code. I just got my Zex nitrous kit for diesels also. I only have 20k on the truck, but so what. It's my toy.

I'm running the Banks Kit on mine as well. I like it so far. The Banks is made for a 4" CAC tube that their intercooler uses whereas the others will fit stock 3.5" CAC tubes.

Gatrfanzz- You should consider dumping that Edge off on eBay and switching to a custom tuned SCT xCal. I did and the SCT is WAY better. Much improved times on the track, especially running giggle gas. Also, if you go as far as upgrading the injectors or turbo, that Edge won't handle it anymore.
