You may want to contact Gemracing. He makes manifolds for this & has alot of experience turboing Isuzu G motors (running sub 10 1/4's). He's in Australia but you can ask his recommendations & advice. Keep us updated on the build!

Since you are running a stock G180, use the weber 32/36.

i found a blow through turbo kit but ide prefer a system where the air fuel get mixed before it gets compressed not durring the process, dose anyone know of anything like that?

Thanks,

It's going to get pressurized any way you do it. What would the difference be? You are going to have to back in a rejet anyway to get the best tune.

yeah i dont wanna use the blow through system cause i hear that the compressed air going through the carb can blow the parts in it out and make it so it wont work right, and i dont wanna have top replace the carb if i dont have to every time i decide to step on the gas a bit

Yes it can be easier to do a draw through system BUT if you ever get a leak between the turbo and the intake it will be pressurized air fuel combination (can you say BOOM or FIRE)a blow through setup is allot better and if you get a carb that is set up for it there will be know problems. Most of the turbo/carb setups are blow through so they do work as well as they are allot easier to setup and fab.
