Current Mods on my 2008 XLT Super Crew Cab:
BBK 80mm TB......the intake itself and cmcv actually limits this mod along with the heads

TB Spacer.......as you already know....doesn't help on FI systems

JLT Ram Air intake.....hardest cai to tune.....due to the short tube....doesn't allow the air to stablize

Jet Power MAF......a ford maf with some resistors to fool the pcm

JBA Headers.....if these are shorties its been proven that they don't have any hp gains on a naturally aspirated motor....with a supercharger they do.....they do improve the sound.....long tube headers are your best choice for gains

True Duel Exhaust......nothing wrong with that as long as its 2.5" piping or 2.25" piping
Stupid Magna flow mufflers........nothing wrong with them either.....at least they're not flowmasters

And of course the Edge Programmer........doesn't allow for some of your air intake mods to have the correct air/fuel ratio and the an cause an even leaner condition over that of the stock programming.......

That why I suggested custom tunes and no you wont be lightening your wallet anymore cause this will be an improvement......

Default thank you

Alright now that's what I was looking for man!! Sorry if I sounded a bit put off. I was looking for more of an answer to my edge question. All I got was you put crap on your truck and spent to much on it. lol I do have the long throw headers. The TB spacer is off and making a paper weight out of it. And the magna flow mufflers I do like but I don't like the sound of these. Maybe a different series. I will look in to changing out the CAI. I will hold off the TB for a bit. I just put it on a couple weeks ago and in my opinion haven't had enough time to test her out. If I don't end up keeping it. I'm sure I can find another fool to take it off my hands. Again appreciate this response alot better and will for sure get my edge in to change her out. Thanks for the help

Unless you are wanting the under hood bling, you could recoup some of the PHP cost by selling the CAI and MAF, and converting back to mostly stock air plumbing with the gotts mod.
