Power Strokes 1994-1997 Upgrades and AftermarketUpgrading or adding OEM or aftermarket equipment to your 1994-1997 Ford F-Series with Power Stroke engine.
For now, I have pretty much a stock truck when it comes to making big power. Stock injectors and HPOP. I am installing a CPRx fuel system that Bob at Dieselsite is building special for me. I plan to go with an upgraded H2E turbo when I can afford it, as well as the biggest injectors I can find. In the future this thing is gnna make some major power. Thats why I dont wanna be caught with my pants down when it comes to the IC I install.
I don't wanna have to install two intercoolers because the first one couldn't handle the boost. So are yall thinking Spearco or Diesel Innovations for this application?

I have the truck listed below, and have just resumed heavy pulling with it after laying off for a couple of years. When I stopped, I knew I needed an intercooler.
People have lots of opinions on Banks stuff, but most seem to think the Banks Intercooler is a good product. I know a couple of guys who have them on OBS trucks, and they have no complaints, even running hot chips, etc.
I just called Banks, they are having a sale this weekend, the I/c for my truck was $1404 or thereabouts.
I just ordered it. There are lots of good other ones I am sure, and I am not a Banks zombie by any means.
But, IMHO this was a good price for a good product.

I've used those kits. When you install it you will realize that you made a good choice.

I used a new 7.3 cooler($200 on craigslist) in combination with the banks piping kit($300) I didn't get the reduction in EGT's I had expected. Never got hot to begin with and I don't tow more than a couple of jet skis. Of course I did the turbo at the same time... Anyone notice a 1 mpg decrease after intercooler install?

Has anyone used the spearco IC and how does it fit and how does the piping fit? I have 200cc hybrids and egt's are ridiculous and boost up around 45psi
