Am I missing something there is a turbo technic a series kit on e bay and the carb mounts on the turbo,
How does it get in the inlet ? Does it blow directly into the intake ports?

Suck through similar to a supercharged setup, I'd avoid it, you're likely to have fuelling problems. I can imagine as the air fuel mix passes the compressor that it cools, fuel condenses and then gets thrown at the edges of the compressor housing :/

Why would you have any different fueling issues to a suck through supercharger set up, i know a turbo spins faster but still would have to overcome the same fuelling surely.

It's just a case of getting it set up.

At least with a blowthrough all that leaks is air - with suck through it could be a bit worrying if fuel vapour is leaking ?
(apart from all the other drawbacks)

That is the exact same kit/setup, as my old one, T3 unit with a Hif 44 on the side :), i still have my old engine:)..
This kit are missing the inlet manifold, a really short one direct from the turbine housing :)..

Well there's no inlet manifold from turbo to head, i can see that being fun to fabricate :/
