Default Doing several induction mods at the same time... Suggestions?

OK, I am acquiring the following parts and am thinking about putting them all on at the same time:

Vararam VR-B2 (with K&N)
Ported MAF
High flow airduct/coupler
Ported/Polished TB (S2)

See sig for current setup.

Any reason not to do these all at the same time?
If not, suggestions on order?
Any problems with the computer relearning new air flow with all done at same time?

Additionally, the TB I sent out to Shaner has no hole drilled in the blade as does my stock on that I had tuned after the cam swap. I am going to swap in the new one without the hole, then swap blades if it won't idle right.

Any issues or concerns with this plan?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Don't need any comments about the mods not being worth it, or where to better spend my money thank you. Just looking for 5-ish HP pickup and mainly some better airflow, especially at high speeds.

Reason I waited so long to touch this area was that I was always thinking about going with a supercharger. Now that I have decided to stay N/A, it's time to work on this a bit. Thought about going 90mm, but don't seeing there being that big of an upside with stock cubes and a baby cam.

I would just toss them on and see what happens.

Hey man, if you need someone to tune or install give me a buzz, we're up and running down here. Thats a pretty good setup to get the air into the motor as efficient as possible. The only thing better would be an LS2 TB and Fast 90mm Intake.
