We are interested in knowing further detail regarding the placement of the restrictor in the grand scheme of the intake for our engine. In other words "are we required to have the restrictor after our throttle body?"

"No throttling after the restrictor"

AKA: No trapping air in an 8 gallon airbox between the restrictor and a second throttle /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

For the teams using R6, F4i, ZX6 and GSXR 600 motors, are they still using the stock throttle bodies and removing the throttling plate in them? If not, what type of setup are they using and how are they controlling the mixture from idle to wide open.
