Anyone have info on this injected turbo setup?

Found this one in the boosted gallery at the classic inline website. Seems simple enough, I was wondering what the details were though.

Never seen that one before.

Looks a lot like a draw-thru w/ 2bbl TBI.

This is the link to the picture in the gallery.

Well, I guess it's not much use since that's the only picture and same one as above.

Thought it was interesting as that appears to be the driver side of the engine and most people just turbo straight off the manifold on the passenger side.

Maybe someone here will chime in with more info?

Don't have any knowledge other than disecting the picture. Looks like he runs the exhaust under the oilpan, better pray for no oil leaks. Why he would run draw thru on a fuel injected setup is beyond me; no intercooler, and not as efficient because you're trying to compress both air and fuel. Personally I think a better setup would be to mount the tbi on the log downstream from the blower. Not to mention he runs the exhaust exiting the blower back under the motor again!

That looks allot like an early (79-80) 2.3L Ford draw-through setup, modded slightly....

I contemplated the under the oil pan route w/ the exhaust. In my case, the centerlink was in the way and it ended up easier to do it the way I did.

But I don't think it's a bad idea.

The draw through is easy and simple for a low boost application. It just depends on what you are trying to do.
