I believe slightly under 200 is the limit with that carb, standard engine is fine.

I recommend that you do a search on the forum for Pinto turbo - there are many threads covering what you are asking about. It's worth reading them since I doubt we remember to write it all again.

One thing I will say - I think a T4 turbo is way too big, and old fashioned for this kind of build. It spools unreasonably slow and the only upside I see is that it will probably build boost so slow that it will make the engine last longer. IMO a small turbo like a Mitsubishi TD04-15t or g is a much better option for 180-220 bhp.

Didn’t see what turbo was being used! A td04-13t from a Subaru Impreza will be cheap, soool quickly and have more than enough flow for your goals.

As above 200 ish and the carb starts to become a restriction, my dad has a Renault 5 got turbo,

Tuning the carb is easy enough, only tricky big is the 1st and 2nd stage for the boost, the jets are cast into the housing and have to be drilled out carefully,
