Please help. Looking for ANY RX1 turbo install instructions, mainly trying to figure out what was done with the so-called "Pitot tube", which I can only figure out was an adjustable, fine-pressure PSI regulator connecting the charge (boost pressure from intercooler) air to the carb bowl vents, effectively forcing fuel up the jets into the carb throats via the bowl overflow tubes. It appears the downstream pressure from these little regulators was only about 1.5 lbs, with tiny adjustments allowing for density altitude compensation.

Next question: Was the carb vacuum slide (outside air pressure) vent also connected to the intercooler and/or a regulator valve, or this same "pitot" valve??

Q3: Anyone still have a set of the aluminum slide caps and vent T's for purchase?

Q4: Anyone with the intake manifold available? Exhaust header? Turbo snail? Oiler? Will most likely put together my own kit, but might be able to use old kit parts.
 
It's simply a pressure source to the float bowls that used a main jet to control how much pressure signal the float bowls saw. It was in the charge tube "pre" intercooler so that it was before any pressure drop through the intercooler.
