Read R.G.'s "Technology of the Tube Screamer". It not only explains the circuit in great detail, it lists almost all of the mods that boutique builders do on the TS-808. It will give you a great list of places to socket components.

     Socket the .047uF cap and the 4.7k resistor that form the RC filter. These will affect frequency and max. gain. Do read "Tech. of the Tubescreamer" mentioned by dano12 and these articles also:
