ITB's are sex.
my favorite is when they're on light old-school high-revving japanese cars, but those are awesome, too.
when i get a 240Z with a V8, ITB's would be real cool.....

We will complete the fitting of the throttle bodies within the next week and have the first power runs soon after. The design aims of this project were to achieve a strong 300bhp from the 968/944 S2 engine (100bhp per litre) and finally solve the 968 power mystery. We have had a mass of positive feedback on this project and are extremely confident on this project.

He's been working on it for the last 4 years. It's not done. Here's a thread that chronicles his progress: a 968.net thread .

Those would look "bad" in my little sleeper
Edit: There's a thread on 968.net dealing with this and here's a cut and past from late last month.

Hi folks, not been here for a while.
Nothing has really changed for the last few months in that I still believe that head and intake work will have to be done together to reap benefits, but I don't have customers who will pay for the work in view of the larger gains we can achieve with our low boost supercharger package for a similar cost.
That said I still have the prototype QTB set up so if anyone is interested in pushing the development further I would be willing to sell it for around half of what it cost to make. Contact me direct if you fancy a go at the job.

Does anyone know where on their site they list the 944S2 / 968 supercharger?

Colin has dropped the ITB set up since his superchargers are making big power on 968s. I'm not sure how similar his kit is to the SFR kit anymore. There are a bunch of SC 968s now over in the UK that he has worked on.
Last I saw from him
Run 4 = 429.5bhp @ 7155rpm / 473Nm @ 5444rpm
Run 5 = 418.2bhp @ 6798rpm / 462Nm @ 5585rpm

Do these supercharger setups keep the A/C? Oh man - two supercharged 928's in the garage & a supercharged 944S......awesome!
Considering a high boost 5.0 928 S4 is cranking out over 550rwhp - this are some damn good numbers.
If I could only get Todd's 6.1 liter @ 15psi on the dyno
