housings for blowthrough turbo?

if i were to do a blowthrough turbo set up, the options are streetported turbo II housing, streetported 6 port housings with no sleeves, or streetported 6 port housings with pinapple sleeves, i dont know if you can get the sleeves to actuate.... with a carb. i do have the gsl-se lower intake manifold.

If you plan on using the 6 port LIM then you have to use 6 port housings.

And you should be able to use boost to open the 5th&6th port, but i would put some sort of restricter/regulator as i believe the acuaters only want ~5psi.

suggestion
instead of making seperate threads involving your questions on a blowthrough setup
why not make one thread asking all the questions you can think of?

To turbo a 6-port you're gonna have to remove the sleeves and the actuators off your LIM.

Unless you are planning on making a huge turbo spacer/manifold to move the turbo to clear all that junk.
