Power adders on Rochester quad?
I did a quick search and didn't see anything but I would love to put some sort of power adder on my thirdgen. Is there any way to supercharge or turbo charge a Roch quad? I want something more than what a ram air would give.

its been done but i dont recomend it , u would be far ahead of the game if u just bought a used holley 1450 series 650 carb and did the hanger 18 mods, u can pick up those carbs for 25-100 bucks on ebay\cl the classifieds , most will be needing a rebuild but ur basically doing that anyway when u mod it

u would be way ahead of the game if u bought a stealth ram or other aftermarket efi intake
i had to convert my iroc back to tpi before i turboed it , it was originally tpi but the po converted it to carb and did a total hack job. looking back i wish i would have went single plane efi manifold , or other efi manifold instead . the cost difference between the 2 was minimal , and i would have been way ahead of the game if i would have done it in the first place

dont bother with a tpi swap , to do the swap will run u around 450 bucks just to have a stock tpi system.
