I'm planning on mounting my turbo where the battery used to be (relocating it to the rear trunk). the "shortest" tube location would be underneath the rear trunk, hanging "under" the car, but after fiddling around with the turbo under the car, i came to the conclusion that the turbo is just too big (this is a tiny chrysler 2.2 turbo, too) to fit in that space without some *messaging* of the rear trunk floor..

a twin turbo is probably do-able, but why?.. the car's got enough on its hands just by pushing one small turbo.. if it was to be done, it'd have to be 2 VERY tiny turbos.. and the result wouldn't be much to brag about... stick with a single turbo.. they're cheap, and easy.. after i'm done with my current moving situation, i plan to have the hardware all assembled and ready for testing in about a month and half.. and from current calculation, the cost will come in well under 500 dollars (you'll have to do your own welding, of course)
