It is loud and it is not street legal. The entire engine package has to be designed around the individual throttle bodies. It is not a bolt-on, it requires that the heads be ported due to the change in velocity, and standalone tuning. It's not worth it unless it's race only.

I've heard the individual throttle bodies from Toda , it's loud and it's an all motor application. you got to get a different ECU chip for them It's hard to get it to work with stock ECU's and you have to get the filters from somewhere else then Toda.

Some people here in So-Cal run their ITB in daily driven cars. So, it's really up to you on what you want! Check out
http://www.Importbuilders.com which they have a dyno graph on that daily driven ITB motor.

ITBs are not very streetable and if you live in cali and get the fuzz on you say bye bye to you car for some time plus you will lose a lot of low end power
if you want the high end power and to be lil bit more streetable try a short ram with a mod stock itr manifolid
