I guess you are talking of the upgrade offered by the factory or perhaps the one offered by Prodrive.

Also, is yours the 4.3 or 4.7 as model year 08 was the changeover from the smaller to the larger capacity I believe.

Many like me have had retrospective power upgrades since buying our cars, tweaks such as lightened flywheel, twin plate clutch, uprated air filters, cat delete or removal of the OEM cats and replaced with 200 cell cats that flow better and then remaps.

The biggest difference for me was the clutch/flywheel, let's the 4.3 rev much more cleanly and the engine spools up quicker. The hi flow filters and cats certainly make a difference also. Less noticeable to me is the remap but it just helps tie all the above upgrades together.
