Message this hasnt been discussed much, just trying to think outside the conventional Z box. Wouldnt a rear mounted turbo set up be an advantage for our vehicle? By putting them in the back would give you: options for any turbo you can buy, option to do a single turbo set up,easier if you needed to do an external waste gate set up, no need for expensive downpipes or turbo manifolds, cooler under hood temps, more room under the hood, better weight distribution, more cooling efficiency on the compressor side, easier to change out. From what I read, there isnt much difference in lag, plus you could take advantage of those billet turbos that have been talked about recently on the forum. The only dis advantages I see it the extra piping, small amount of extra lag if any, and some fabrication. what are your thoughts?
