how much u want to spend?

carbs can be done alot cheaper but wont be setup as accurately as tb's.

the tb's will produce better results but good results on carbs are also achieveable and still for good money.

total vauxhall did a guide back along to tell you how to fit them aswell bud

Weber and Dellorto are both Carbs.

£1200 could get you a second hand throttle body kit
