So mine i have airlid mod, Flowmaster exhaust and bellow.. . How much is a P&p TB? Are they better than bbk.. SO REALLY if I changed my throttle body I would have 330 rwhp? thanks

As stated by Aklaim, there are too many variables to answer that question. A lot of '01s & '02's are running strong stock dyno's. But then some older ones do as well. As far as trying to benchmark your mods, I personally can't afford to spend $75 dollars to find out what a $100 mod will get me. So I'll just show up at the shop once in a while to see how I'm doing.

But talk about a nice profit margin- there must be about 3 dollars worth of manufacturing costs in there.

I wish. The chrome inner piece is made with the aid of computer aided design(CAD) which is expensive. If you look at the TB and MAF you will see that they are not exactly lined up. This has required quite a bit of R&D to get right. This chrome piece floats between the MAF and TB. The rubber is then applied. This is also another complicated process.
Your right this is mainly an appearance upgrade. There is such a lack of chrome available for these engines it sucks. A rubber tube like the FernCo piece is just as effective. The Austin Bellows comes in red, blue, black, and yellow.

Sorry dude, I wasn't referring to yours- I was referring to the basic SLP variant:
