If you run a suck through then you cant run an intercooler or blow off valve. but if you are having detonation problems because of intake charge being too hot (shouldnt be too much of a problem for a low boost setup) then you can run a water injection system which will dramatically cool the charged air. The A series engines seem to respond to a bit of boost really well and people have got some impressive numbrs from very basic setups

Use the search bar on the left of the screen. a few people have used a down draft webers(?) in their blowthrough turbo setups. But if you just after a simple easy setup, people have had great success with the much easier (and cheaper) to setup draw through turbo. As I said before just have a search, all the info you need is out there. Have fun.....

All i want to do is get an a/f reading as stock. so i know that the thing is in a reasonable state of tune then plumb the turbo in and adjust the carby as required to get the a/f back to a semi normal state. just as a base tune before she goes in to get done by someone who knows their ####

Hey guys, Me and a mate are trying to sort out his carby turbo b310. Suck through an 1 7/8 su with an unknown turbo charger. I see a couple of you guys are using a Air/Fuel meter to do some tuning. What are they worth? where do you get them? Can I build my own out of an o2 sensor and an air/fuel guage?
Cheers, Dave

The strut brace in the photo is a "boof-bar". A member called "boofhead" made and sold them through the site. And they were nicknamed boof-bars for a fairly obvious reason( well hopefully it will be obvious now)

Hey guys, I was wondering if any of the NZ members had some cups and bezels lying around unused. Preferably in reasonbly good condition. I have bought the centre piece for a stainless grill but need the bezels to finish it off.
Cheers guys, Dave
