Its only oiled cooled, after a trash it still not even hot, no where near hot enogh to fuk seals or bearings. That carby hat is sealed wit silicon not welded. i run a 7psi carter pump. Stock carb with float level bumpt up and 2nd jet drilled out. It realy isn't rocket science to do and make work.

My buddy,s got the same setup, with a non-return valve on the fuel line.
Only problem his got is, he keeps blowing the head gasket. Still running origanal pistons, to much boost, cant set it. Advice on this one will be appreciated.

3x 1/4 runs = 1x new head gasket.

The standard carb can easily take 5 pounds of boost. It won't fill the gas tank (1200s like most carbureted cars don't have a return fuel line).

For more information, see wiki -- blow-through turbocharging

 Re: A12 turbine
one way to get rid of that haggard reducer is to cut the triangle flange off the turbo round it with a grinder and put silicon hose on it

 Re: A12 turbine
what are the unused pipes around the turbo? They aren't neglected water lines are they?
