I'm currently building a turbo 998 and i'm wondering if its possible to set up a weber side draft for boost? (blow through) i'm hoping to run 15 pound boost max, and probably 9-10 the rest of the time.

Probably, but not worth the hassle of making it pressurised. a Normal Turbo HIF44 is good for silly amounts of power.

I believe Robert did something along those lines on his turboed V8 TVR (Dribble...)

A body of mine did it in the mid ยด90 and it worked ok, but you have to block off the choke.
I dont know if you would get more BHP with a weber set up, but it is not as straight forward as a HIF44

If i have more toys than you when i die, I WIN
