i'd say it would be the same as a twin throttle body turbo set up where the throttle bodies are before the plenum chamber, split the crossover pipe/pipe from the intercooler into two and have an air box/plenum for each carby. i'm not sure if you would have to decrease the diameter of the pipe after that split though. it could be a nice unique set up. i hope you have good money that you are willing to spend on petrol though.  |

There is a great turbo "how to" book by a guy called CORKY BELL. In it, it shows a twin carb turbo set-up using Mikuni-Solex PHH44 carbs on a 1600cc(?)BMW engine. I think these are the carbs off Toyota Celica twincams from the early 70s,18RG maybe. Get a hold of this book, its the dogs danglies on turbo info. The book is called "MAXIMUM BOOST".
