Looks like one of those old BAE turbo kits. The block under the carb is divided, the mixture draws thru the carb into the terbs intake and out of the compressor back into the other side of the block & down into the motor. It is a very basic idea that at first look shouldn't work, but it does, very well![/quote]

That makes sense to me.

technical name for the setup is an Ambient system. i tried this setup on a 12a from my friends 84 GSL let me tell you it was a bear to tune since we made our own custom parts.
