pathfinder TB

you can do the whole project for around $200, No gains have been recorded yet, but 90sleeper has one and is putting down some unheardof numbers. I plan on doing a before and after comaprison.

I believe mine is a 2001 and I am using the pathfinder TPS, others have put the maxima TPS on the TB. Whatever you do make sure to set up the TPS correctly before you put it in the car. This procedure is listed in the haynes manual, and others I am sure.

I feel this is an unsung mod for us N/A guys.

I think there are some cold idle issues running PF TB. If you live a warm climate where 40+ degrees is normal it's probably no big deal, but if you live somewhere where it's in the teens or single digits, it may be an issue. I'd hate to think that starting the car on a cold day may make your idle stay at 1500-2000rpms till the motor is completely warm. If you have an auto, it could be dangerous.

I have the adapter plates sitting in my garage for the PF TB, just need to find a decent priced use TB. Yes, it's the 2001 3.5 pathfinder.
I know I am going to loose my cold start and coolant lines that go through my stock TB, but I am only going to run the PF TB in the warmer months of the year.

The funny thing is, I don't have any idle issues at all. My car doesn't stay on the fast idle at all. When it has been in the low teens here, my car acts like it wants to stumble when I first start it, but after that it is fine.
