Hey dude I have nothing against turboing an a-series, go for it. What I mean by reliability is that the CA/SR was built to handle forced induction. The old a series even if you built it from scratch would not be purpose built for forced induction. The block is 30 years old even after a freshen up. Plus the CA/SR have more bolt on accesories unlike the a-series where almost everything will have to me custom made. If the budget can alow for that, go for it.

Its like these people who want to chuck on turbos to the originally NA CA18 or SR20's. Yes its kind of the same motor (same series) but the turbo blocks have been built to with stand the forced induction.

I have seen some examples of carby turbo setups and sure they work. But for an ease of installation, setup and running point of view I dont think you can go past EFI. You have more control over your fuel delivery, spark advance, etc etc with an after market computer.
