pathy throttle body Q

I search but could not find any info on this subject.

Ok im wondering about if their is any info on proven gains from doing the pathfinder tb upgrade on a FI maxima. I have the oovi.
Im wondering because the pathy tb seems to cost a good bit and im wondering about the gains it would provide. if its only 3-5 hp Ill just turn the psi up one and call it a day.
Also Im running the z32 maf about 18 iches before my a32 tb. From the z32 to the throttle body im running 3ich pipe and reducing it at the throttle body. Would it help to run 3 inch from the intercooler outlet to the all the way to the throttle body. im trying to make about 400-450whp

I cant see it NOT helping. With everything you have, is has to help. Once you get the Pathfinder TB and put them next to each, the A32-TB looks like a little toy. 3" all the way from your intercooler would be best. Reducing is definetly not helping.

I was wondering if I did the 3inch all the way from the outlet side of the intercooler it would make the turbo lagger. or slow the volocity down on the spool.. Correct me if im wrong... its 2.5 now
