I have a 97 PSD and am saving up for an intercooler kit. I was thinking about the ATS or the Banks. I can get an ats for about $500 bucks cheaper. Is the Banks worth the extra money?

I would not go with ANYTHING ATS...

The Banks kit is very nice, but also carrys a very nice price.

There are several cheaper kits out there that use a stock Superduty IC and they work just fine!

Agreed. You can just modify a Super Duty kit to fit fairly easy also.

no sorry. but we mounted it right infront of the radiator. welded a couple tabs to the frame to hold it up and the bolted the top of the IC to the header.
