[Spridgets] Cross Flow Quesiton - Turbo Question

[Greg Gowins]

IANAE, but here's how I understand it.

With a carb, the amount of fuel dumped in is determined by the speed of the
air flow.  So as more CFM is fed in to the venturis, more gas is pulled in
to the cylinder. With a turbo or supercharger, it uses the same amount of
fuel as non-boost system, it just crams a lot more air in so that you get
more energy out of the fuel at combustion time.
