I just ordered the C&L upper intake plenum and I was wondering if there are any additional hardware or gaskets that I have to buy for it? Thanks for any help.

No, just reuse the stock one at least on the intake side (its more of a rubber O ring than a gasket). I changed throttle bodies when I installed mine and the new throttle body came with a gasket, however the stock one was in good shape and could probably be reused. One word of caution my stock rubber intake tube had a paper sticker uner the hose clamp, you probably don't want that being sucked into the engine.

Where would be the best place to get an IAC and EGR gasket? Would a local ford dealer have it in stock?

Thanks for the heads up, but I will just be using the stock TB for now.

Hmmm, I was just going to buy the 01+ hood scoop for my car now and wait till I save up some more money for the 75mm tb, but now you have me thinking and I may switch up and get the tb next.

How much does a new TPS go for, incase I can't get mine off?

actually the easiest way to take the tps sensor off is this.
get a drill bit that is about 3-4mm in width. start drilling at the center of the screw, put the T/B in a vise....drill until the head falls off takes about 10 sec for each screw.

A new TPS from ford, if memory serves me correctly, was like 30 bucks????? I had to buy a new one after, mind you I didn't have a vice to keep the intake steady, I drilled into it trying to do what 2K2SILVERBULLET says...
