Where i live the E15 almost doesnīt exist.
I dont know what carb it has, its the original one for the e16s, but i donīt know what it is.
I you think it can handle pressure, my life will already be easier. I hope that the stock fuel pressure also is enough.
I wouldn't attempt to put boost through the stock carb. I'm sure you will have nothing but problems,they are junk!also you will not have enough fuel pressure with the stock pump.For every pound of boost you put through a carb. you haveto add another pound of fuel pressure.Example,if the carb. requires 3 lbs. of fuel pres. n/a and you want to put 10 lbs. of boost through it you will need 13 lbs. of fuel pres.

I think i will need another fuel pump, but i donīt know how much pressure it should be able to pump. What do you guys think? How much pressure does the actual pump make?
your stock mechanical pump only makes 3 or so psi. you would need an electric one and a pressure regulator that adjusts the fuel pressure according to the boost.
So you'd be building a box for the carb to run in? or how were you going to do this?
and while you're at it, get a better carb, the OEM carb is no good for performance.

Yes, iīm going to change the carb, iīm not sur which one, do you have any recomendation for the carb and or the pump?
The carb is going to work with the air blowing inside, itīs not going to be in a sealed box.
Thanks for your help
pumpwise, whatever pump you like with the ability to deliver 15 psi, your choice of boost compensating fuel pressure regulator. Carbs- what about something off an old turboZ? I don't know what carbs would like being boosted. maybe you should consider converting it to TBI that would make it work better anyway.

I know that TBI is better but its hard to find things here. I think a Weber 32/34 or 32/36 will work well. the only think that makes me hesitate about doing the turbo change is fuel economy. Here the price of gasoline is high (1 litre costs 1 dollar) so i would like if the car could mantain its economy (if i use it with a light foot) and when i step on it o know that economy is going to hell.

My stock pump is electric, how much pressure does it make???
If you have a carb, you have a mechanical fuel pump. I'm researching a blowthrough carb e-15t setup. I've been reading this book and from what it looks like, a progressive carb (like the 32/36 DGV series, same as Holley 5200) would be less of a headache to tune, since you can you the increase in boost to open the secondary barrel and jet that for the increase of air provided by the turbo.
If you're using the stock e-16, (I wouldn't see why quite frankly, the e-series engines are relatively inexpensive, might as well get an e-15t, lower compression, etc.) you can get a plate to block where the fuel pump once went, then get an electric pump to suit your induction needs.
Has anyone actually done this sort of project (blowthrough e-15t/16t or simliar carb'd induction)? Some practical insight would be much appriciated.
What engine do you have?
It will be a mechanical pump if you have the E16s.
Its the stock pump and its electric, if you put the key in ACC you can hear the pump and if you un plug the gas tube, gas will start coming out with the engine turned off. No doubt, its Electric, trust me, and its original because i bought the car new.
Where can i find a progresive carb like the one you tell me? Id like to keep the original one because everything plugs right into place. Maybe put bigger jets. but im affraid to lose to much fuel economy, here fuel is hard to buy. 1dollar a liter. about 4 dollars the gallon.
Can a E16 Carb handle 7PSI???
