Infiniti Q45. Cheap and can be rigged up to work if you are creative. A throttle body is a throttle body.

No noticeable hp gains you mainly want it to operate smoothly. I have NEVER heard a complaint on a NW but I run a FAST so I can't really say. Every NW I drove was smooth but so is my FAST although some early FAST's had reported problems.

Injectors aren't needed unless you are going a lot bigger on HP but a tune would be good cause it will affect your A/F ratio.
