I guess the only reason why production car have got only one butterfly is manufacturing costs and service.
Look at the Bmw M5 (straight six) It's got throttle bodies, because it's supposed to perform, not to be cheap.

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.

M5 does not have a turbo

its the turbo on multiple throttle bodies that causes drivability problems

cant remeber to be honest, i had a chat with the guys at omex last year about it they had been mapping a turbo'd elise and had gone back to the single body and the results were more drivability and better spread of power
