it doesn't increase performance. it is a collar that you insert in the blue intercooler tube just before it goes into the intake. it gives you a bunch of ports (1/16th NPT, 1/8th NPT, 1/4 NPT) that you cause use to monitor boost, activate hobbes switches, shoot NOS, water/meth, etc... it "facilitates" additing power. well made piece too!

I do. Makes plumbing drugs and such much easier and easier to remove.

Its basicly just a sleeve thats predrilled to accept all kindsa stuff screwed into it so you dont have to drill and tap your truck. It takes the place of the blue rubber boot between the mani and the pipe coming from the intercooler

Bmdmax has a good picture of this for putting a boost gauge on:
