Default Trickflow intake w/ oval TB Q's

Sometime over the winter I plan on throwing a trickflow intake set up for the oval TB on my car, probably with the Accufab piece that flows around 1280CFM. Before anyone points out the obvious, yes, I know the car as it currently sits is far outclassed by this intake setup. After I redo my exhaust with longtubes, I'll be doing a blower setup, and after that an engine, so rather than buying a TB plenum combo to be replaced in the future, I'm setting it up for the goals I have now. Has anyone else done this swap, and if you have, can you tell me what's involved in throwing this intake on a GT? Do I need to get the Bullitt throttle cables or anything like that? What about any sensors?
Edit: Also, on an NA car will I need a tune with this setup?

We like to deal in the Here and Now.

Every car is different, you may not meed a tune but the other guy could. IDK if you need the trotle cable, why don't you ask the people you're going to buy it from/

No sensors

my 2 cents, way more than you need, but i can say this for one reason....i think exactally the same way you do. I dont like wasting money on stuff i wont use in a future set up. Hense why i see where you are coming from. But if your ded set on that TB then buy it and store it, because i doubt it will do you much good on a factory car, i have a 75mm TB and alot of people think thats to much. Not to mention im not sure the intake will do much for you either without cams, and your looking to replace the whole intake system with a SC, unless your doing centrifigul instead of cobra style, in which case back to previous statement, buy it and put it aside for your better set up. I only say that though because from where you stand now i imagine that spending the effort to change that will end up disappointing you, and thats not how you want to feel after spending 1000 bucks, or how ever much it is.

Yes, I will be dong a centri, either a Procharger F1A or a Novi 2000, I'm still trying to figure out which is going to suite the bill. I was thinking turbo before but I couldn't really find anything that suited my needs that wouldn't cost a fortune.
