I came across these things. Says they are IDF based throttle bodies.

Is this what you fuel injection gurus are playing with in your labs?

Would be awsome to get a setup like these running.

TWM makes Weber clone throttle bodies for several carb styles, including the IDF.

The only issue with these, or any other individual runner induction system, is measuring manifold vacuum for speed density systems (like the Megasquirt). Just one port has too much pulsing to be read reliably. A MAP plenum can be used, or you can use only the throttle position as the load input, which comes with its own set of problems. As a rule, you can get such a system working great for racecar needs, but getting good low-speed drivability is a real challenge for a street setup. The most effective setups use both throttle position and MAP for load, based on RPM (Megasquirt only uses throttle for acceleration enrichment out of the box).
