You can buy the Banks piping kit directly from Banks. Not sure if they have one for a 6.0 I/C though. The 7.3 Banks kit is very nice and includes all the brackets, boots, clamps, and the intake spyder and it's about $100 less than Boyer.

that kit should work, from what i hear it comes to long so you can trim it to fit, the 6.0 and 7.3 inlet\outlet diameters are the same. i used a mix of both 7.3 and 6.0 tubes to build my own kit

I think I have the stock 7.3 SD pipes if anyone wants them, I was going to try and mod them but just used the Banks pipes instead. Their price was good and well worth it in quality and saved a ton of time

I am in the market for pipes. Why would you have to mod them and How much? You can PM or e-mail me with price if you want. Then all I will need is a spider pipe. Hint Hint 
. How close are you to Parker I was out there two weeks ago? Then again nothing is close to Parker. LOL

I just contacted Banks and they said the kit minus the intercooler will be $875.00
Whew! that is a bit more than the $400 or so I heard here. That comes with mounting hardware pipes and hoses. I ma thinking that I will not need the mounting hardware, is this correct. I can fabricate a little

WAY more than i wanna spend for the install kit alone! i was hoping for for $300 for the install kit.

The only things I got from banks is just the pipes and 4 boots, the clamps, the intercooler and mounting hardware I all got my self and saved a lot of money. If you get banks pipes, you have to trim either the pipe or the intercooler (which is what I did) where it hooks up, I trimmed my intercooler inlet/outlet back about 2"
