Why isn't he keeping the throttle bodies with the turbo install?

Nothing to me with me, all the best with the sale and all that! I just wondered!

Because it's rather hard to plumb the output of a turbo into 4 separate bodies! And also there's no point - the additional breathing ability you get with individual bodies is all but useless when you're forcing the air in anyway.

Well, I had offered to make him a plenum for it (as I built the bike setup).

He's going for a modified Rover setup though, as the GSXRs really need the injector pockets drilling out to take 14mm Bosch injectors to allow a proper boost seal (istead of the rubber ring on the stock pico injectors).

Shame, it's a nice setup

I think he'll also take offers on it too.
