Getting a new motor for my 05

Currently (not) driving my 05 5.4L 3v due to the motor so I'm swapping in a new one. I considered going to the 4.6L but that seemed like it would of been a major PITA to get right so I'm sticking to the original displacement.

I am planning on using Banks headers with a modded Gotts intake, I found an intake tube that bolts right up to the stock air cleaner and has no baffles/mufflers on it, so basically a naked stock intake tube. I am also going to go with Banks headers and Flowmaster cats. I will never go with Magnaflow again, CS was pretty crappy.

The question is, do I stick with my Edge CS Evolution or upgrade to their CTS2 Evo or do I go to the SCT X4 I have sitting on the shelf?

I would use the SCT, and get some custom tunes for it.
