I would advise you to use the search button at the top and have a good read around first. You could also have a look at Turbo Phil's website which has a good guide to turbo conversions on it.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

forget using twin carbs, lots of work for zero result. Carb is not limiting factor in turbo setup (250 hp + no problem on a single HIF44).

As for turbo choice, big subject, depends on what you want power and deivability wise. Lots to choose from.
