the rolling road reading you have is a load of shit, as it is from Well Lane so forget that power figure for the time being as the modifications you are looking at will just about get you that figure.
but with regards to the throttle bodies, you would be better off getting Jenvey, or a similar good quality make, as you wont get a great gain with the Dbilas throttle bodies as opposed to just having a DBilas inlet manifold.
i would probably recommend just getting an aftermarket inlet, cams, exhaust manifold and a proper remap at VSport or Jamsport or somewhere else that is reputable. you should see around 140ish bhp with that i think.
if you are after much more power than that then you are starting to look at big money that would be better spent on a different car or engine transplant.
