Any rear mount turbo setups out there?

Looks like the OEM muffler area is large enough for a squires rear mount type kit. Just wondering if there are any out there. I'd like to see how all the spacing worked out.

Haven't seen any. I'm sure you could do it, though I'm curious as to why you'd want to. Not like there's a shortage of room in our engine bays.

Edit: Unless it's not a rotary. In which case I could understand. Still, I'm betting not a lot of people have done it.

i haven't seen any rear set-ups as far as turbo 1st gens go, it'd be interesting to see, i'd be worried the turbo would be so low to the ground or gas tank tho, or maybe i'm confused about the place you're talking about.
