I didn't see prices for the forks listed, but according to their site, the TTX sells for $1405.

That's the retail price listed. You have to email for actual sale price, I assume since Ohlins is one of those suppliers that restricts advertising below retail (silly, IMO).

I'd like to know if this includes the spring rate of your choice, and will they also match the valving to that spring rate before it's shipped. I doubt it.

fork spings are about $100 and I hope that includes the fork oil as well...

Unless they are specifically excluding 'respringing' from the sale (which I doubt), Ohlins does sell their shocks and kits sprung specifically to the weight-spec you give them.

But re-valved as well?

According to what the Ohlins guy told me, they don't re-shim their valving based on spring-rate/weight (off-the-shelf anyway).

and after installation I can be your tour guide on the surrounding area roads so you can test it out.
