4.8 engine mods?

Has any company started making any engine mods for the 4.8?

The only thing I can find so far is an intake and throttle body.

Is there any sort of engine managment that isnt 900-2000$

I think you'll see more stuff as the 4.8 proliferates a little more in other cars. The 750 is the 4.8, I believe, same with the 550.

Also, from the looks of it, the new "4.4" model of the X5 next gen will be our 4.8is' basic motor.

Somebody jump in and correct me here if I've misspoken.

There's one company, speed innovation that remaps the ECU, but now I don't know where the guy who chips it ..
