throttle body upgrade?
Just like its MAF, Nissan designs for minimal TB restriction at WOT max rpms.
Typical restrictions run less than 7" water column...........1/4 of a psi for each. [[NOT 100% additive]]. Unlikely that the entire air tract from outside thru everything to plenum has even 14" water column restriction.
For the past 8 years, manufacturers have utilized the 25" water column standard as this is what is used on a flow bench to measure the cylinder head restrictions.
Gaining a HP or 2 might be achievable at the risk of some downside in transistional smoothness or fuel mileage at the optimized 55-65 mph range [due to changed resonances in intake tract].
Drive by wire TB are expensive and finely tuned pieces of equipment.

For those that need help understanding may I suggest this web site
Glad to see you back around and posting again Q45tech.
