I didn't actually mean to vote, sorry.

I have seen a few draw-through 120b turbos, but I would stay away fom that setup because it's just not the best. If you could achieve a blow-through, it would be better off.

IDK how the carby will handle the steep angles capable of a SAS 4x4.

I think staying in low-range 4x4 is more important that installing a low-range camshaft. IDK how the stock cam handles a turbo, but probably not that bad.

I like SAS, though. That's badass.
