Default which throttle body to use

I have a 2003 3.9 Dak. What throttle body would someone recommend using if I was to change it? And what would it accomplish?[8|

Installing an OEM 50mm (w/48mm "torque ring") throttle body from a Dakota R/T is probably as big as you want to go. You may gain a couple of horsepower from the swap, the bigger advantage will be helping flow more air to support other parts (ie: headers, heads/cam, etc)

I use The Fastman 46mm TB on my '99 V6. It bolts right on with no cable swap like you have to do when you use the V8 TB swap.
