Not to mention the new Si has the RBC intake manifold from the Euro Accord R which a lot of type-s owners swap into their car. The RBC IM is a beast from the 2.4l k24. As for the drive by wire throttle body, im sure there will be an aftermarket solution in the future. I heard Hondata is already working on it.
