      Just remember that those are cheap but everything else for FI is not. You have to upgrade everything pretty much and its a whole lot of work. Don't get in over your head, but twins would be so bad ass.

        well not really ive seen alot of turbo kits running on carbs most kits out there have some kind of carb bonnet or box to run turbos on... but thats alot of tweaking... and not as reliable... i already looked into it the kit to convert a holley carb to accept the forced air cost about 75 bucks... but then you have to find someone who knows how to tune it in very well ... usually custom secondary springs... float bowls that type of thing... turbos have been around way before fuel injection... they just work pretty dummy proof on a computer controlled engine... if i do do it... i would proably keep my intake and switch over to a 990cfm 4bbl holley trottle body... from what ive seen on the numbers you can make way more power than a tune port setup with that and still keep a nice aftermarket carb intake... but loose all the risk of carb error when running turbos...

                    good idea

                    lol

                    I learned the hard way. Breaking two rear ends in 4 days. NOT cool.

                      you dont want anything from ssautorchrome trust me. alot of DSM guys were buying tubular manifolds they got them and they where crap, the welds broke, the coating flaked off, fitment sucked ect. all around a bad deal. just remember the old phrase, "you get what you pay for"

                        Yep, SSAutochrome is garbage.

                        Their turbos actually having housings that are glued together.
