Default Just another 2016 RCSB 5.0 build

As someone who wanted something with a coyote motor and didn't want a mustang because everyone and their teenage daughter drives one, I finally picked up a 2016 F150. My last truck was a heads/cam spray 2003 5.3 silverado and I have been waiting for a new RCSB truck that didn't weigh 5000lbs for a long time. So the goal give or take a few changes is as follows.

Current Mods:
Custom 3" dynomax exhaust, dumped before rear axle.
DJM 3/5 suspension
Dyno tuned by me on HP tuners (I have tuned a lot of LS cars, this is my first 5.0)

Future Mods:
Precision 81mm front mount
MMR heads
CJ Intake manifold/twin 67mm
ID1000's
Fuel cell and battery moved to bed
Circle D converter
Weld RTS S77B 17x10's back 17x5's front
Most likely some sort of link bar setup

I just ordered a 2017 XL RCSB Base w 5.0 option for the very same reason, I wanted the absolute lightest model available. Im currently in Korea and wont pick the truck up until February so dont look for anything soon. One of the things im really curious about is how much HP can a flip kit take? I dont really like the fact it just has cups it sits in, im considering taking mine and just cutting the factory perches off the axle and welding new ones on when I put it on top of the spring.

So the truck is on its way to Texas from Hawaii to have the motor built, turbo setup fab'd up, and some hefty suspension changes for the rear. Should be ready for TX2K17 just in time to break a bunch of stuff and find the weak links.
