Lightbulb 5.4l 3V engine tricks.

anyone have knowledge of any tricks for this engine. i.e. on the 302 (OBD1) there was a trick where you punched a hole to ground out the MAF sensor to unleash a few extra horsepower, or even adding a resistor inline with any IAT engine to trick the puter. is there anything along these lines for the 5.4 3v engine to trick itself into creating more power. ALSO, anyone ever notice when your ac is running how you have a little more low end torque?? anything to trick the computer to think ac is on to add the extra horse?? any feedback, or pot stirring would be appreciated.

The only way to "trick" the computer is get a programmer, preferably with custom tunes.
