Have you ever considered using Oil-less turbos for the midmount setup?
I was debating swapping over to an oil-less on my maxima, i had a rear mounted kit that i built for it. Oil lines down the full extent of the car was always something i hated about the rear mounted setups lol..

With the way I would build the HR kit, there would only be about 30" of line to feed the turbo. It would be right at the end of the passenger side header.

Would you use a vertical intercooler with single entry at the bottom and twin exits in upper part ?, one on each side, clean design, short piping. A 370z single turbo setup had nightmare with mafs until they switched to this setup, bt you might know welle the story on *******.

first off Its because every kit is custom welded. And if they did weld you a kit and send it to you and something didn't fit people would be all over the forums talking trash. True story......Second say what you will about about the boost curve that **** hauls ***. 525whp on a stock block with no engine upgrades. Just the turbo kit. Any one else doing that?? NOPE

the fabrication on that kit is good quality, and im sure it hauls ***, but for the turbo size and the motor the curve is a little lax compared to similar singles

This is why you build jigs, and if it doesn't fit, then the fabricator does not know what he/she is doing. How do you think other kits are built? It is easy to build a kit on the car, build it on a jig and make if fit on any car...that is the hard part.
As for power...well, let's just say that there are a few places that claim big numbers but when a customer tries to duplicate the results (and fails), it turns in to a **** show. It is easy to send a replacement pipe out if the one sent with the kit did not fit. It is a bit harder to explain why a kit only made 500whp (maxed out), when the manufacturer claims it will do 600+. True story, seen it a few times on this forum.
AND
14psi at 3800rpm with a 6765 T4 .81 a/r on a 3.5 DE here. Sounds like you have a boost/exhaust leak.

Not sure if the HR and the VHR are the same as far as configuration under the hood goes, but if they are here is the ST kit solution:

You would get a kit built for free, only pay for for the parts at (my) cost and get a free install. It would not leave here unless it is 100% perfect and the customer is happy with it.
If you find a 100% free/installed turbo kit, make sure to let me, and all other forum members know. I will delete this thread and we all call it a day.
What would b the turn around time?
