Pathfinder TB in a 5.0gen?

Just wondering if this would be a beneficial mod for 00-01 Maxima's? Only reason I ask is because I notice a lot of 4th gen owners that do a MEVI swap end up using the Pathfinder TB instead of a 5th gen one as I think it is ported larger...Would this kinda swap produce decent gains on our car? So far I am running a CAI, Advanced timing, Y-B pipe.

Not sure. I would have to think that the opening in the manifold is the same size as the TB that comes on it, so the larger TB would be inefficent with that step down in size right behind it.

I'm pretty sure VQ35 manifold will bolt with the Pathy TB.

VQ30DE-K, not sure.
