ahh i meant how much do the actual quad throtles go for.. i was thinking of picking a few up 
as for the restrictor thing... ppl do it different ways..
the idea of the restrictor is to reduce the amount of air that is pulled during each "suck", and also reduce the backflow when the cylinder is not sucking.. it basically just reduces the amplitude of vacuum change.
a very easy way to make a restrictor is to get MIG welding tips... ppl use maybe 0.8 to 1.2mm tips (ie hole size) and the outside is maybe.. 4-5mm diameter? so it can be slipped inline with nirmal vacuum tube 
some people run a restrictor between each runner and the chamber. others connect all the ports together and then put the restrictor after the join, so there is only a single restrictor.... i don't know which is best.
some peple also run the restrictor _after_ the chamber...
for me i just had high overlap cam, and the take off point was on the plenum (no quads) so i didn't have a choice.. i just ran 1.2mm restrictor and a Ryco carby fuel filter (which got strange looks as it was incabin )
so basically... you can experiment.. it helps to have realtime datalogging capability on your ECU so you can see changes in the MAP quality. a pack of MIG welding "contact tips" is like $5 for 5 or something, bloody cheap... get maybe 0.8 or 0.9 as a start.. you can always cut them in half and drill out to larger size later...
at first try with lines connected and no chamber...
then with chamber
then with restrictor before chamber
then with restrictor in each line before joining
you can graph what is likely to happen.... each suck is a negative pulse that is kinda sinusoidal for as long as i lasts (which at idle is basically the time the piston is going down, ie 180 crank degrees, or 1/4 of engine cycle)
yar, Megasquirt.. a wealth of EFI info for anyone who wants to learn
