yeah, your system would be quicker to change. the point I was making was that with a draw through system using a downdraught Weber instead of a better sidedraught Weber or SU, and the standard inlet manifold instead of a better fabricated item would give you that option albeit at the expense of a bit of power. It wasn't supposed to be a benefit of draw through over blow through, but I can see how you interpreted it that way. let's not make this thread any more agro than it already is
45 minutes is an outside estimate. I could put up with that. Some of the racetracks I compete at are 2.5 hours drive away and undoing a couple of pipes and moving the carb is a small price to pay to avoid having to tow the car home if you happen to blow the turbo at one of those events.

And If all you are after is a car that runs no boost in the week! just disonnect the wastegate actuator and this is what you will have! Nothing else is required!
how about you try that and see what happens! I think you're in for a surprise...
as for your suggestion of sucking the fuel through the turbo when running in aspirated form, I reckon it would be very sluggish and horrible to drive. You would also have problems with pooling of fuel in the compressor housing which would't be a very good idea when you connect it back up - liquids don't compress very well
