Hi

I haven't done this myself and there are other forum members that have and will be able to advise more but I think as a minimum you would need an inlet manifold adapter, the throttle bodies themselves and after market engine managament such as Emerald. You may also need a new fuel rail and pressure regulator aswell as an air box.

It's not the cheapest way of gaining power. DTA's K series kit is just over a grand: http://www.dtafast.co.uk/Throttle%20bodies/Your_engine.htm

I've seen some kit car people use modified bike carbs by stripping them down to pretty much the runners with butterflies and welding on injector bosses.

There's a few K series links about like this one: http://www.mgfregister.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11758&start=40

I hope that helps
