TB bypass, p&p TB, TB bump stop. he won't need the fan switch, he has a predator, a fan switch will be a waste of money. the flow pac has a smooth bellows and cold air box so he's already done FRA. Something else to think about (which you may or may not already be dong) is make sure you've kept up with all the regular maintenance, fluid changes etc etc. and run high quality fluids, some people have reported netting a few extra horses going all royal purple, or mobil 1. Also check your pcv system to make sure your not getting oil to your TB and intake manifold.

1-gears
2-UD pulley(s)
3-Cutout
4-p&p tb
5-tb bypass
6-tb bump stop

This explains it: http://www.installuniversity.com/ins...sity/index.htm

EDIT: sorry for some reason it won't link directly to the right page, Click on Install Documents, on left side, then scroll down and Click on Throttle Body Bump Stop Mod.

Basically the throttle body blade doesn't open all the way to a 90* angle. you have to grind the bump stop down.
