Done a bit of research not much but havent found anyone do it so far, surley someone must have?

Wish there was an off the shelf solution, all of the threads I've looked at in the past seemed to suggest it's a fabrication only job.
If so...

Plenty of research been done. Need to spend 2K+ to achieve an engine fit only for race track.
If you want 200BHP of N/A useful on the road, fit a BEAMS engine.

Apparently if you get the right inlet manifold it would be a straightforward job doing it.

I don't disagree. Not that i've ever seen "the right inlet manifold" yet.
Then you'll need an ECU, cams etc.

Best speak to Red http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/profile.ph ... le&u=13113 as he has throttle bodies on his albeit with a beams engine.

Yep, he used 4A-GE Blacktop throttle bodies fitted to a custom inlet manifold adapted for the BEAMS engine. And Link ECU IIRC.
