I was thinking it would make a bit more vacuum on the intake side and maybe spool the turbo faster?

Adds more velocity.

Unfinished projects king.
absolutly freaking awesome project mate 
but you should stay away from slide carbys if you can because when theres a turbo atached to them they can sometimes suck open leaving you stuck on full throtle which will lead to girly sreams 
and an expensive sounding clunk from your engine

I dont think its possible for suction to pull open a slide carb. You may be thinking of Keihen carbs with the diaphragm that opens the slide, but with mikuni's the slides are opened directly by the throttle cable, and have a pretty good return spring.
this kid just bought a stock turbo from some type of vw from my freind i was thinking of buying it off him before he could. the inducer is like a inch wide lol the shaft had two much play for me tho. i woulda put it on my racin mower.

In case any one's interested these restricter plates come in 3 graduated sizes, (purple, blue and gold) and they're instaled between the carb and engine to purposely lower power and speed in junior kart racing classes.
One of these would probably increase the velocity of the air-fuel mixture entering an engine but I'd think restricting the intake or exhaust at any point would only worsen the drawbacks of using an over sized turbo.
