Default turbocharged bike powered GO-KART

For those of you who were talking about turbocharging a go kart here ya go in case your wondering this is a turbocharged bike motor in a GO-KART that looks like it weight 300 or 400 lbs. Its suppose to go 0-60 in like 3 secs and puts like 3 or 4 g's on your body or something like that.

I get a bad feeling from that setup...and is that a DRAW THROUGH carb setup WTF fuel will puddle up inside the cooler, pipes. and drain back into the turbo after it's shut off. I don't like it!
