Boosted Nikki Carb.

Is anyone running one of these stock MAZDA carbies under boost...?

What is the boosted/turbocharged 12A that came from the otherside (australia/japan)...? EFI or Carbed...?

No - The stock 12A Turbo's were Fuel Injected.

You can't run a stock nikki under boost, but there are a couple people that know how to prep them for boost. RotaryShack(Robert) knows how, and I think sterling and carl are close, or maybe they've figured it out by now.
