Turbo v-6 64 3/4 ton on CL, WTF?!

What the hell is this setup and how does it work? Looks insane! Looks like the fuel is sucked threw the turbo and runs to the intake threw that tube!

I saw that ad also.

I didn't think to ask about it here.

That looks like it would be some cheap power for some one!

I have always wanted to do something like that. Wouldn't the throttle response be a bit slow?

It seems like it would be an act of Congress to get the thing started. I mean, i know about draw threw setups, but this one is sucking the air/fuel mixture threw the turbo, and then spitting it back out threw the tube attached to where the carb used to sit! Seems unpossible to me.

Just found this pic, So i guess it is pretty common place to do this extreme of a draw through setup! Just seems like you would have to really flowing some air for it to carry the fuel all that way!
