Ok so I see allot of you are telling me put boost to it. Now lets say I would go that route. Is this a bolt on to the 5.4 and what else besides the blower itself would I need to set this up? I found a few good deals on blowers but nothing else was included?

Depends on which "blower" you are referring to

Gas V-10 does a good enough job towing.

How much $$$$ do you have to spend. How good are you with a wrench? Need to know before answering. All my mods were installed by myself. If you need to pay someone to do it it will greatly limit your list of mods. FWIW if you are considering a blower you can forget about gears. Not needed with blower.

I just sold my diesel. Had a 96 7.3 that was amazing but I couldnt justify keeping it. Maitnance was to much for how much I used it.

JMC- Im pretty well Mec inclined. Almost everything I do, I do myself. Dont like paying people to do work I can do myself LOL. Im to cheap for that.
