I am looking for information on how to tune a carb for a blow through turbo. My car sputters a little during hard acceleration in low gear. Once the turbo spools up good it clears out and moves out. Any advice out there????

This sounds like a can of worms. Are you sure you don't want to use FI? I guess you need to find out if you are going rich or lean during the sputtering. I'm pretty sure the carb needs to be in a box or have boot pressure referenced to the bowl and the power valve and throttle shafts need to be sealed. I hear floats have a tendency to crush under pressure so you probably want to use the nitrophyl variety. Also fuel pressure needs to be increased under boost so you can actually move fuel into the carb! Hmmmm, FI is sounding a lot better! Or suck through with an inter cooler.
