6-port blow through carb help

I have an inquiry. I was wondering if this would work for a blow through carb setup on a 6-port in a 2nd gen.

6-port manifold
Weber DCOE (?) carb ?!?!?
s4/s5 turbo with manifold
Tap the front cover for oil line
FMU
BOV
Wastegate (should be with turbo)
FMIC with piping
Carb Hat

What else would be needed? This is actually bothering me that I don't know.

a rising rate fuel pressure regulator.

an IDA (downdraft) weber would be a better choice. like a 48. boost preped.

a spacer for the exhaust manifold.


That's about all I can think of that you might be missing.............................

Why would I need a spacer? Doesn't a weber manifold clear the turbo?

Point taken on the 48 IDA downdraft.

No, the stock turbo will hit the lower intake manifold. You'll need to space it out.

Even with an aftermarket setup for a manifold?

Any manifold that clears it?

Most weber/dellorto manifolds for sixports are just the upper that mates to the stock lower.

Ah, I was talking about using the Weber lower intake manifold.

Might clear. dunno. It would make sence that it would as it's sans actuators.

But the worst possible scenario is you'd have to space it. no big deal.

And Notch the frame. Something I'm not a fan of.

I built a system for a buddy of mine that has a Rotary pickup truck and he is selling the entire system. If your interested let me know or send me a PM. I received your previous PM but, have not had a chance to put the numbers together for you yet.

Thanks

I was hoping to get ahold of you.

Is it for a 6-port?

Does it clear a stock turbo?

Also do I have to "space" to the turbo? Since that means I'de have to notch the frame. Something I won't plan on doing.

I have 4-Port to 6-Port Adapters I can sell you

The original Intake manifold that he is selling is for a 4-Port but, I can sell you a 4-Port to 6-Port adapter that will address this issue. As for notching the frame you should not have to do this if you purchase the right Exhaust Turbo Header.

I'de perfer to keep a stock hybrid on it to keep the costs to A) a minimum and B) It'll eliminate alot of fabrication issues.

So none of the aftermaket intake manifolds allow for the s4/s5 turbo and manifold to clear a lower intake manifold?
