I reckon it's a TB fitted to each pair of runners. He's then mounted a "fuel-saving power-maximising vortex generator" thingy to each TB (you can just make out the swirl pattern under the stretched cloth - which btw looks like he simply took from an old t-shirt he had lying around... It's obviously brilliant for use as a filter element, lol).

The ducting that is torn around the throttle bodies has got to be one of the messiest & ugliest ways of getting cold air to the filters too.
