Kai---Wow! What an interesting topic Joe has brought up! 

On throttle body vs. multiport, one would have to believe that
multiport would dispense fuel more accurately, while the throttle body
maybe easier to work with. In the case of using either with forced
induction, how about using the 'regular' nozzles for most (non-boost)
driving, then having  supplemental nozzle(s) kick in when the manifold
senses boost? This could be triggered by a line in the intake manifold
to a pressure switch.   Are you still here, Joe?

So far as your friend trying to come up with a second vacuum source to
fool or help the metering system---Good luck---It seems to me that at
time when positive manifold pressure is called for, and that's what
supercharging is all about, you can't have any vacuum present. His
choice of the Garrett T3 is a good one for the Triumph. If Lee Janssen
is listening, I'd like to talk..
