Thats the difference, your first post said "blowthrough pict34" but the search needed "blowthru pict34"

The idea can work. But it seems like you are in for a sh$t load of work. First you have to modify the carb - assuming you know your way around a carb inside out and you have the tools needed to do the mods. Then you have to experiment with different jets by modifying your own as you cant just buy different jet sizes for that carb.

Good luck to you if you want to do this. I'll be quite keen to see it work, but I dont play with carbs.

The reason why it is inadvisable to run an intercooler downstream of a carb: fuel +oxygen+confinement= Bomb
The brazillians used the twin carbs on the SP beetles for blow through systems for years
Best book on the subject is TURBOMANIA>
