Wow, looks great. Other than the lack of air filter and AN fuel fittings, it looks like a good way to adapt fuel injection to oldstyle race manifolds or former Weber installations. It's not worth 800 bux IMO, unless you want it for its looks.

If you want big power from an NA 13B (250hp+), it's worth every penny. The stock EFI manifold does not belong on seriously ported engines. If you buy it just because you think it's looks good, you're wasting your money.

acutally its 657$ (aud converted to usd) and this is my project, it can be afforded, and looks most definitely arent my concern. i do want a pretty heavy na setup, i love turbo, but that is for another project. also about the filter part. look on thier websit, they offer a k&n setup for it. all im wanting ot know is if anyone has used them yet and how well they perform.

If you want cheaper, you could always get a dual throttle body with injectors and such from a big v-twin bike. The hard part would be fitting it to an intake manifold. The pic shows a TB from an RC51 that's being used on a P-port 13b in an FD (not mine).

Or do you expect the stock ECU to be adequate?

I have twm itb's on my na fc, works great. Street port 6 port w/Haltech e6k here.
winding out 1st and 2nd, loses it in 1st with the crappy street tires:

There is no magic in air horns, throttle bodies and injector bosses and fuel rails, which is all you get for $800. I bought my Taurus SHO for less than that, man I must be a redneck.

It's hard to say, you can't just change the throttles without switching to speed/density or straight alpha-n. Switching to the ITB's will likely result in changing many other things, so telling you how much of the power gain is a product of just the ITB's is hard to say. Nobody switches to ITB's just to hack the stock ECU onto it with the AFM still choking it.
If you went to a speed/density setup, with well matched ITB's to your setup, street ported, good compression, good tune, well flowing manifolds (not the stock ones as-is!) you should be able to get between 220-250hp @ the flywheel revving to 9k. So much here depends on you and your ability to fabricate and tune however, your mileage might vary.
One thing I can say is a result of the ITB's is awesome response, the engine responds like a fuel injected sport bike with this arrangement well tuned.

Like SirCygnus said I would get some bike TB's, but use GSXR750 ones, I am not sure of the year but they had the largest size TB's of the suzuki's. And they can be had for under $200 and this usually includes fuel rails and throttle position sensor.
