Check your FICM connections and make sure they snapped in and clicked. IMHO if you had that much trouble with air in the fuel then you might have pinched the primary filter cap o-ring and it's still getting air. Pull the secondary filter cap and see how quick it fills up with fuel when you cycle the key. It should be less than a second or so to fill it. If it takes longer than check the primary filter cap. It may or may not leak fuel but it will suck air.

secondary filter fills very quick and had no air bubbles. i'm used to 7.3L, is the hpop in the rear of the valley now and is that the icp under the up pipes?

I think you may have an exhaustleak
check the cac boots and up pipes to the turbo for air leaks
Alittle exhaust leak before it gets to the turbo will ruin your day
start it up when cool and feel around all those exhaust pipes ya played with
you did a full egr deleate??
what did you do with the egr valve
did you do anything eles besides a egr deleate

ICP is in the passenger side valve cover on an 05. The IPR is under the turbo in the back and might be suspect also.
