yes it is very possible i do alot of import tuning and i had a supercharged carburated mustang befor and it works about the same what you would need to do is find a turbo kit for the 22re and put it on your 22r and the intake tubing that would be going to the intake for the 22re well this is where you will have to make of find something that would seal the top if your card and have an inlet to hook the intercooler piping to so the boost would go into the card and ill tell you how everything hooks up. first you put the turbo exhaust manifold on with the down pipe and mount the intercooler, run the intercooler piping and make a fitting to cover your carb but make sure it can handle the presure, you can run a BOV or just yous the stock waste gate on the turbo.. if you have anymore Q? just PM me

never heard of putting presser though the carb.

only way I've seen it done is to run the air from the carb to the turbo.

the hole point of a turbo is to force more air into the motor not air from the carb to the turbo that would make no sence a turbo sucks air in and spins in the turbo and multiplys the speed and the shots out thru the piping into the intercooler to cool the air because the colded the air the better and the shots into the intake of the motor but in doing that the motor will need more fuel and with all the air coming in it must go out so you will also need to upgrade your exhaust

I remember Camden made a supercharger at one point for the carbed engine.

Ya I was into the import scene for awile and my friend had a older civic with a carb that had a turbo hooked up to it. The air should go into the carb not from

problem is ,,, the turbo putting pressure in the top of the carb forces the fuel back into the bowl

go with a supercharger

or mount the carb on the intake side of the turbo, so the entire fuel air charge runs under pressure,

I guess I stand corrected

once again I keep my name.

turbos and carbs don't usually mix very well. the main problem being that you need to either have the carb completely sealed off from the outside(as its been said, it'll blow air through the fuel bowl) so the pressure is the same for the entire carb, or you'll have to run the carb on the turbo inlet. the problem with that is that the fuel can eventually erode the vanes in the turbo, as well as fall out of suspension on the way to the engine.

then there's the nightmare of timing, and mixture control etc. remember the old pontiac 301 turbo? yeah, didn't think so. those engines were time bombs waiting to go off due to the carbed turbo.

i think that turbos are suited much better to EFI engines, and a draw-through supercharger would work much better on a carbed engine.

i do agree all he was asking is if it was possible and it totaly is its just not logical and i would agree with going with a super charger its the same idea just alot less hassel

or just find the junk off an ret and go that route..fuel injection is better anyway..carbs suck off road anyway..

He's right, carb.s do suck. and turbos blow! (SCs blow too!)

seanc · « **Reply #15 on:** Oct 09, 2005, 02:23:19 PM »

if you want to get technical, it is not the carb that sucks, but the vacuum created by the downward force of the piston in the cylinder that in turn sucks air/fuel through the carb...

Sooooo if you put your hand over the carb on a running motor it don't suck?

Good one

toyotamobing · « **Reply #20 on:** Oct 19, 2005, 05:32:42 PM »

so where could i fine a supercharger for a carb?

brainlessfool · « **Reply #21 on:** Oct 20, 2005, 09:24:49 AM »

L.C. eng.

toyotamobing · « **Reply #22 on:** Oct 24, 2005, 02:35:03 PM »

where would i get an L.C. eng. catalog or something to look at what they have?

brainlessfool · « **Reply #23 on:** Oct 24, 2005, 03:07:44 PM »

try there web shite.

yotaweelr · « **Reply #24 on:** Oct 24, 2005, 09:57:34 PM »

look at the old turbo buicks with the 4 barrell with a turbo. make a adapter to put a 4 barrell on the 22r manifold, with the turbo inlet spacer, and a carb on top. use a small cfm carb. best way would to find the old edelbrock 4 barrel intakes for 22r motor and then the complete turbo setup off a buick, and maybe a hybrid t-3 t-4 turbo.
