Mopar Turbo

If you mean the Buick setup that has a Q-jet carb mounted to the side of the turbo and the turbo mounted on top of the intake I would use a different setup if you are going to use it on a V8. It will be much to small. It will work OK and add power to a /6 but draw thru setups have a lot of turbo lag. The '78 - '80 intakes circulated water to warm the carb plenum to improve cold weather driveability. '81 -'83 cars circulated exhaust heat thru the carb plenum to speed the warm up for driveability but warming the intake and air charge in turbo systems is going backwards because you really want to cool the intake charge not warm it up.
