GySgtFrank will become famous soon enough
The Nikki might be a bit small on a turbo combination as it only flows about 315 cfm in stock condition. I have been kicking around the possibility of using two Nikki's for a 630 cfm intake. Since you're making the intake anyway it might be fun. I've never heard of anyone doing this before, but I'm sure someone must have tried it. If nothing else a dual four barrel intake on a rotary would be a good conversation piece.

when your doing a blow through turbo setup the carb does not need to be big, it simply needs to flow enough fuel. @ 10 psi it flows way more than 600 cfm, thats for sure!!
i made 540 rwhp with a nikki carb turbo. the challenge was always getting enough fuel, not air
