I wanted to ask if anyone has any pics on some custom rear mounted turbos? Im about to start mine soon and wanted to see how others are running their pipes/lines. Thanks

 

google works wonders

 

Such a weird system.

It's almost like a single exhaust now since one is reserved for the waste gate.

But I like it. That set up if you hide it well enough could even pass CA smog assuming you keep the cats... so simple I like it.

 

Yep google works wonders. Use it all the time. I wanted to see my350z wonders instead bu thanks for the reply with a few pictures

 

Two of the 3 were from the forum.

search it google, and add site:my350z.com to end of it

Ie.....rear mount turbo site:my350z.com

 

I thought rear-mount turbo's only worked well on Porsche's . . .

 

I would imagine the lag would be horrible

 

depends...

with your big v8 I would go with a larger turbo set up since tq down low is not issue for that Beast

Now for the dinky 3.5 it has decent tq but we can all agree nothing like V8 push. So in that case I would run a smaller turbo set-up. The lag has been noted in some case, but again, people are just slapping turbos on without much thought.

I thought about this years ago... and decided to go T-Trim Vortech SC instead
Same issue as the rear mount. The 3.5 had decent TQ but the SC needed higher RPMs to provide decent power. End the end the set up ran like stock with just more faster, sooner with consistently and predictability through the rpms.


I still want to try this set up on day....
