Those are the 42mm Suzuki GSXR 1000 throttle bodies. From the looks of it, you got them from someone who either built them early, or is still using the homemadeturbo.com setup as a blueprint. A couple of design flaws you're going to have are: unequal runner length, improper velocity stack inside diameter, and vacuum.

Ideally, you would be running the injectors from the stock Suzuki locations, but those have been lost to the JB weld, which means your brake booster vacuum is going to come from just cylinder number one. The vacuum lines teed together from each cylinder are going to the MAP sensor. The line coming off of cylinder number two is for the FPR, and the line coming off of cylinder number three is going to the charcoal canister. At least the stock Suzuki TPS appears to be in tact and it will work fine assuming you obtain proper engine management.

Hey man, you don't need to show us a picture of your crotch to get answers. haha.

I think what kendall is trying to say is that the "homemade" itb's have come a ways since whoever made the ones you have there put them together.

I don't know if that vacuum source will provide enough for the booster, can anybody confirm?
