Carbed RX1 Alpine turbo install pics

[wienerwater]

I am in the process of installing an Alpine turbo on an '03 RX1, and would like some pics/info on the install, specifically on the the carbs and electrics for boost controller and guage and fuel pump system. The cd is basically about the Apex, so not much carb info there. I would like to know about some plastic pieces that are "glued" onto the carbs, I think some pllastic fittings or dividers??
Also, the fuel pump and lines configuration would help., and if using the stock hood, what mods to make for clearance around the headlights.

DO NOT glue the plastic pieces . you will need billet "t"and top diaphrame caps .ted jannetty at turbo adiction keep some in stock he is a really good guy .

From what I understand, you don't need to go to billet T's and caps until you are running in the 16psi and up range, no? I will be at 12psi max, anyway, anyone have any pics of this connection setup, as well as fuel pump and reg mounting locations, would help a lot.

At a bare Minimum you need the billet float bowl T's the plastic one's leak no matter what you do, they were never meant for any type of pressure, they are vary soft flexable plastic.

This is the source of many, many, tuning and performance complaints.

The Billet carb caps are a good Idea also, they start to leak around 8 psi especially when hot.

I recommend you to buy and install the billet carb caps. You will have a hard time with jetting consitency with the plastic caps bending when they get hot, the will not leak the same every time, you will have some work figuring out your jetting with leaking carb caps, but it's your choise.
