only quad throttle 4 banger I'm familiar with is the Toyota "silver top"/"black top" 20 valve inline job! Might find adaptable/conversion parts/advice with these?

MazdaSpeed did a quad setup for the BP engine and Rupewrecht has had a few sets on offer through his JDM page. The price although isn't for the faint of heart.
