ive been looking through the pages off Total Vauxhall and spotted some dbilas throttle bodies being sold by regal autosport. 
 
they claim that for the £1010.00 you get: 
 
Thottle bodies pre mounted - ready to install. includes throttle bodies, intake manifold,airbox,linkage and instalation kit. 
 
it doesnt mention anything about management to run the tb's so is that something extra that would need to be bought? 
 
also does anyone have any experiance with running these tb's on there c20xe? 
 
many thanks

for a bit more you can buy 'proper' throttle bodies.  
 
the only benefit of the dbilas ones is that they accomodate standard sensors so can be used with standard ecu and loom. they you would need a re-map or similar to make the most of them and by that time you have spent the same money as a real tb set-up!

the dbillaskit has an inductionkit over it with the regular intake temp or air mass meter in it, so u can run std management with it.. 
 
better save some money for a proper set incl megasquirt or a remap (i would go for megasquirt)
