You'll need the intercooler, new boots (the stock boots are too short, and the inlet on the 6.0L intercooler is smaller), and you'll need to relocate or replace the stock trans cooler.
As for EGT's, I saw a max 100 degree drop when working the engine really hard. For less than $200, it was worth it. Expect to spend another $1000 more for an aftermarket intercooler that will drop EGT's at most an additional 100 degrees above the stock 6.0L intercooler.
Now if you have aftermarket injectors, or plan to in the future, skip the 6.0L intercooler. It just won't be enough.

I bought a lower dash section and cupholder for the 05-07 superduties so I could install upfitters. My original 05 panel got screwed up, so I bought another one from him. Good to deal with.

I had a similar thread going (https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...tercooler.html) and will end up putting one in myself. Looking around I found this Th!nk Parts Guy/FTE Parts Guy at the FTE Parts Guy and want to be sure it is the right one to go with. In my thread, IDPisan had a great writeup (https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...ml#post6742503) that I will be using, including parts list and pictures.

Ed, I will be contacting you again to go over this after my truck gets back. Saw it sitting in the shop lot today and got a little excited so I drove over to look. Unfortunately, the motor is still out of it. They estimated it would be ready to pickup on Tuesday, but since the heads were still at the machine shop, they couldn't say for sure.
