After I make my choice on how to modify my intake then I'll be using the programmer for its intended use of bettering performance. And both of us have the 4.6L, not the 5.4

    Nope, its a real issue. Its always a good idea to get a programmer first in any engine before you mod it, however.

    My bad, I read that wrong this morning, I was tired having to wake up for school for the first time in 5 weeks lol. I understand what you meant now haha. Yeah that was my plan for the programmer first, cause if I just got a CAI wouldn't the new MAF sensor make my check engine light come on without it?

    I'm not sure, I don't dabble in the V8s that much, but I have heard people complaining about the stoichiometry being out of whack without it

    The silencers? Maybe for the 5.4L like what you have, but the 4.6L V8's don't have them. And yeah that's what I thought, so I'll get my programmer first, then toy with my intake.

    Is it an enclosed air box or open? And I've heard a few good things about them. Personally I like Volant or K&N.

    What do you do more of, city or highway driving?
