Fake and or low boost turbos

[taank]

I love the look of turbo v8s but can't chance doing it to my nailhead. Is it possible to run it at 1 psi or some other extremely harmless setting. I know they used to do hollowed out blower housings bit have never seen a turbo do the same ... Ideas?

Get really big turbos and big wastegates. Then have the wastegates be wide open. Then no boost.

You could set one at 1-2psi for mpg.

wtf stupid idea..... if you want to make your nailhead look cooler than it already is get a tri carb setup or something.....

I don't understand the idea behind this.

The idea is I want a turbo. But I don't want to blow up my nailhead. This seems small as I already put out more than this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/STAGE...ht_4979wt_1002

Big enough so you dont haz back pressure between turbo and intake manifold.

But id say atleast make it usefull on 6-8psi. And dont use a ebay turbo.

Not interested In multiple carb setups played out like black cobras or 351 fox bodies

What does a typical turbo car run for psi? The nailhead has extremely small exhaust valves can't push it much

psi = cfm.

I want to do a dual. So much underhood room. Use stock manifolds upside down? Or get header flanges and make my own?
