turbo with carbs
 

hey, i am new to all of this and i am wondering, how hard would it be to turbo my 85 prelude. i have dual carbs and that is why i dont know how to go about boosting it. how could i do this?

Don't do it. Ford has an old 4cyl turbo stang w/ carbs that had some problems- its unreliable if you ask me- Of course, for motorcycles- they do it- and i dont know how...its genius- the 82 Yamaha XJ650LJ Seca Turbo, and Honda has a 500cc turbo'd- both carbs, both turbo'd..and sick fast

However yours is with sidedraft carbs instead of my downdraft carb.
Or make a custom manifold so you can fit a downdraft.

i'll make a complete write up here when i (ever) get it finished.

Re: turbo with carbs
 

you could just do a draw through

If you want to make your charge pipes a bomb. I am of the opinion that blow through is the way to go.
