off the shelf carb info needed.

hey guys i just have a few simple question.
iam hoping sterling and jeff20b would be willing to chime in to.

i tried writing this post 4 times and kept starting over.

iam gonna be making my own tubular intake, and i want some info on carbs.
i know sterling is the man when it comes to moding the stock carb's. but in a heated post what i got from it, he believes a turbo setup on his carbs destroys the work he puts in to them making them better plus all the turbo prep that is needed.that and if i do go turbo i could get carb hats ect ect cheaper for off the shelf carbs.

so i deiced id go with a off the self carb from x brand. my best friend works with a few people that can get me all most any carb at a good deal which is a plus.

my question's are these.

what cfm carb should i go with for a na 12a?
what type of carb/brand would you guys say i should go with.
can i use the same carb down the road if i ever go turbo? since people have gone turbo with a stock carb i believe the answer is yes.
what do i need to do to the carb for it to work for a rotary?
where should the omp lines go,would i be able to tap a few holes in the intake for the omp lines(do they go to the stock intake on a 80 12a? feel dumb about this one)

what else do i need to know?
