Well first off I know nothing about Turbos and Carbs LOL so maybe this might work... Here are a few pics of My Dual Boost ref. power valves billet mod blocks.. Last year the car ran great in boost and at idle just at cruise it was way rich (7.0 AFR E85) not good for MPG's also was running lean at higher rpm's in boost.. so here are my fixes Co2 boost and rpm controlled power valves. I know not many run blow through carbs but i really like it and makes great power...

Brent Davis set up. Nice, he's doing my blocks right now. I am going to use a hobbs switch instead of the rpm activated switch. My car is a street car. I can see full boost at 3000rpm or 5000 depending on how hard I stab it. I think it will be a little safer knowing that every time I hit a certain psi the power valves will be open. What are you using for an air pump? I haven't decided on one yet. Be sure to post up your results after.
