Installing an intercooler is one of the easiest installs you can do on your diesel pick-up. On the flip side, for every 10 degrees that you lower your intake air temperature, you'll see 1% increase in air density and engine power output. The Banks Power Techni-Cooler typically provides around 13% added air density and 45% boost gain to your turbo, compared to stock. That's a significant improvement! But what about other competitors? Is the Banks Power Techni-Cooler that special?
Banks' Intercooler takes into consideration all the critical variables that your intercooler can affect, unlike most of their competitors. The BD intercooler provides some boost and allows good airflow to pass to the radiator, but air density is actually lost, which results in lowered fuel economy. The Spearco and aFe intercoolers also offers some boost improvements, as well as air density gains. However, both of these intercoolers have poor flow-through, resulting in higher radiator temperatures. Increased radiator temperatures can cause engine damage and also signal your ECU to cut back fuel, making your intercooler modifications virtually useless.

The Banks reputation stands true with their line of Techni-cooler intercoolers - they are the most balanced, reliable, and quality product for their cost. And in some cases, their products are better than much more expensive alternative components. If you have a brain, go with a company that uses their brains. Go with Banks.
