Also, if someone could explain to me how that turbo set up works I would greatly appreciate it, I can't figure it out for the life of me!! (Sorry I have no pics of it, I don't have a scanner) but for those of you who dont have the issue, the aircleaner sits on the carb and the carb sits on the intake as with a normal motor, but the turbo feeds into the intake, How does this work? - Doesn't the turbo have the intake not the carb, and how can the carb function if it opens up to a pressureized area, doesn't the carb have to be in a box that the turbo pumps into? I"M CONFUSED!! [/B]

I've never heard of a turbo after the carb.? Anything after the carb. is a supercharger I thought? Is there a supercharger that is driven by a turbo rather than a belt??? I'm trying to visuallize what you are talkin' about. Anything like this? I'm havin' a brian lock. Look out, I'm goona' blow !!!!!!!!
