Can do it a lot cheaper if you dont use "proper" tb's.

Bike tbs-£80
Make up some sort of inlet, maybe a cut down std one
Megasquirt management-£250
Make a engine loom-£20
Make alternator lowering bracket-£5?

Depends how much effort you want to put in and how much work you can diy.

Plus finding someone to map the megasquirt.

They are not fake...Not at all. They are proper throttle bodies with plenum above. I have the steinmetz ones (very very similar to the dbilas ones) on my corsa, take a look at my thread in the general chat. I saw 152ps with them.
