PFTB isn't that much bigger, relatively speaking. There's also the LRMAF, or Doug's intakes. Thing is, you rally give no background on your car as it sits now. And my opinion is that bigger TB's and MAF's should only go on only after headers, 3" test pipe and 3" catback, and some minor AFR conditioning, even on the 3.0L.

You can test intake restrictions easy with a vacuum gauge.
No guessing if your stock intake is restrictive or throttle body it's right there in
factual numbers.

Stock airbox and MAF on the 02-03 can do 250 fwhp on a DynoJet. Same units found on the 00-01.

But, the TB is bigger than the 01. So,m with that said, does anyone make the PFTB adapter anymore? Or we need to wait for them rtgengineering folks to hurry up?
