Hey I have been looking at turbocharging my a12 as an alternative to the L20B swap, I can make my own manifolds so it could end up excessively cheap for me. I have a few questions for the experienced. I am looking at all options at the moment for fuel delivery so don't mind the conflicting questions.

1. Blow through

1a. I think I read some where previously that a 32/36 weber is well set up standard for a blow through setup?, is this correct, what modifications would I need to do to make it work?.

1b. Will I need a rising rate regulator?, if so what setups have you guys run?.

1c. Otherwise what is a good alternative carb for a blow though setup.

2. Suck through

2a. Is it illegal in Australia to run a suck through setup with an intercooler?, Plenty of racecars used to run this, not sure why it would be so bad except in the event of a crash. Obviously a blow through would be better, but depending on price I would look closely at this.

3. EFI

3a. Anyone know anything about getting an easy to adapt crank angle sensor for an a12? I was thinking of running an EFI setup with quad injected throttle bodies from a gsxr-600 suzuki bike, pretty easy for me to adapt them as I can make a manifold to fit them, and they have a similar port size to most small engines(38mm with a slight taper down). I would use a microsquirt for this so nearly any crank angle sensor would do, just wondering if there is any that fit with bugger all modification.

4. Other random questions.

4a. Would a standard a12 mechanical fuel pump used as a lift pump fill a swirl pot quick enough during continuous use to feed a aftermarket pump feeding whichever carb. I know it would before boost but what about during prolonged boost periods, It seems like a possibly dumb idea to me as it could result in failure, but could be an alternative to running an inline lift pump and an feed pump aswell.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers in advance.
