You'll get a lot more responses in the 4.6 forum. Also, this is discussed about once a week, if not more, so there is already a ton of info posted on this

Blower means bigger and less restrictive is better. But it can be worth, depending on heads and intake (i.e. other bottle necks).
What you should really be doing is upgrading your pistons. Stock pistons are cast and tend to go south under pressure.

Intake components are like the exhaust system. Going too big CAN in some instances hurt you.
