Where to get custom itb's?
well i hate to break it to you but custom ITBs and cheap should not go in teh same sentence 
off the shelf ITBs would be teh cheapest. Are you going to carburate it or run fuel injection?

well at least with carbs you can usually find carbs used for less than half the price of ITBs and you wouldnt have to worry so much about engine management.
Honestly, unless you have a straight race car that you want to run a big cam, high compression and race gas, and dont really care about street drivability and mileage, ITBs are about the worst return on the dollar you can spend performance wise for a street car.
For the cost of a ITB set and whatever engine management and tuning you will need to run it, you can get a well sorted turbo setup for most cars, especially hondas and VWs, that typically give around an extra 50% more power. An ITB setup, unless you plan to run a crazy cam, higher compression and higher octane will give you probably 10% more power tops. And if your just doing it because it looks and sounds cool well then your just a ricer
