Turbo to CARB?
So,
If I took a turbo like a 15g and hooked it all up the the exhaust housing (no confusion there) on a chevy 350 5.7 with a edel brake 650cfm carb... What about the AIR side to the intake, IF the application has a carb? I would run a IC for sure. but the compressed air out of the intercooler would it be piped to????? Stuck up to here. |

Re: Turbo to CARB?
I'm not sure exactly what you're asking but you'll need a sealed carb enclosure for a blow-through setup. I'm pretty sure the carb has to be specifically designed for forced induction as well. The one on my T/A has provisions for increasing fuel supply without the vacuum signals that are present on a normally aspirated motor.

Re: Turbo to CARB?
Uhhh I guess I don't understand either.
None the less, a 15G is WAYYYYY to small for a 350. If you're thinking about pushing the air THROUGH the carb, you need a blow-thru carburetor. Or you need a sealed carburetor enclosure, which go for about $600. There are some really old "draw through" kits made that have the turbo suck the air its getting from the carb, then to the motor. But it really sounds like you need to read up and learn the basics of turbocharging before trying to hillbilly something together. |
