ive heard the TSB is like throwin your money in a trash can and lightin it on fire, and if your gettin headers go with long tubes, you wont gain much with shorties over regulatr exhaust manifold, not enough to really notice i dont believe.. just my two cents

your injectors will flow just fine up to about 275hp at the tires....which is nowhere near the amount of power you are and will be putting down. that being said, ALL throttlebody spacers are crap, save your money and buy a gun, it will serve a much more beneficial purpose.

not even close. You dont have an '04-newer truck, the EEC is a completely different ball game and doesnt give you the same gains.

just as a comparison, Ford Performance Trucks mag tested an edge on a stock 2005 5.4L 3V. It was a 4x4 with a set of BFG 33s on it. At the tires, it put down about 200hp.
