cold air and throwing maf codes

a TB is on my todo list as i want to lose the 10% throttle dead spot at the bottom and the slow response

On the JDM market 3rd gens, they use the Lexus IS250/ISF gas pedal assembly(same part numbers) with an adapter bracket and that pedal assembly totally eliminates the annoying dead spot and makes the gas pedal even with the clutch and brake for easier heel toe downshifts.

All without having to fart around with getting the TB mod to play nice with the car.

I wouldn't recommend it if you're over 6ft tall though, you lose a bit of right leg room due to the gas pedal sitting higher than before.
