Air goes thru the carb into an adapterplate, thru the turbo compressor, and then back thru a separate chamber in the adapter plate and into the intake manifold.

Do you have to richen it up a bunch for the extra air? How would a air/fuel mix work going into a intercooler? Fuel fall out of suspension?

Most of the fuel gets mixed into a really nice aerosol. The down side is that if there's a leak you've got a fuel/air bomb on your hands. It's not possible to intercool and will ice the carb in cold weather. We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind. - Stu Harmon

That's a lot of area for the fuel to cool and fall out of suspension.

That's a lot of area for the fuel to cool and fall out of suspension. If you have an overly rich condition you can actually spin the fuel out of the mix in the compressor. Keep the tubing runs as short as possible and you'll be okay with the mix under boost. At cruise you certainly can have the fuel falling out.

GOT to run premium fuel ... and with the weak as-is 440 in a motorhome chassis .. you are always "in" the turbo boost. It is not the type of combo I would want to have.

I wouldn't think 6 pak rods would be necessary. Some did get them. Cast pistons in there? I would want to run water/meth injection.
