Interesting Turbo Find....carborated.

I found this to be an interesting find. Never considered twin turbo on a carborated car. Box around carborator seems thick enough. Not sure of effeciency or enhancement.

Wow, that's definately a unique setup. I've never seen a carborated TT before.

I looked at a turbo kit for my '71 240z, they're around.

Very interesting! New to me. I assumed that you would have to go fuel injected. But, in hindsight, turbos have been around for decades, longer than fuel injection. I would assume that with a carborator (in my ignorance) it would be twice the nightmare of tuning. I've always found carborators to be so finicky.
