but i have a very important question, i think we should all know before adding a forced induction system to our weak aluminium engine, what is our boost limit that the engine could handle, i guess not much, my engine's compression ratio for example is 7.30:1 (1300cc, F) when in good condition, so how much the safe ration i could add to it with the turbo???????? deos anybody know???????? thank's man for replying...

If you plan on doing a carburated turbo motor go for the blow through. It might cost a bit more (modify the carbs), but i believe its a lot safer and more effective, since you dont have the air/fuel mixture going into the turbo which gets extremely hot...
Personally for my next motor im planning on big cc's and a turbo with efi... Chris

keep it simple and do a drawthough. if u want the benefits of blow through, go all the way and do EFI.

Interesting question and actually i dont have a clue...
 One way to find out is to calulate how much fuel your jets can flow, along with the fuel requirement under boost and then find out the needed fuel pressure... If i remeber correctly weber 40 work at 2.5-3.0 bar in NA mode, so i wouldnt be impressed if your engine will require something like 6-7 bar (do not take it for granted plz and make your calcs or ask someone that has done it before or sells kits).
