Have you guys seen the vids of a blue IS-F with Twin Rear Mounted Turbos? It's a bit raspy.

Eh, derisive responses and gainsaying accepted -- I hope it works out and turns out to be a good option to consider.

I generally see these set ups making very uneven power, and therefore being preferable for drag racing over daily driving, but I've been wrong before...

on that other setup i reached full boost @3800 rpm (12psi).which the motor was smaller, i am torn between selling my gears or going back stock. With my 8k shift point and stock gears... man are they going to be long....i was kinda thinking to help off-set the boost response it would be a good idea to keep the agressive gearing, but traction will be an issue when boost comes in.

My buddy had a rear mount on his 3.8 camaro. Not too shitty. Ended up scrapping it for a built LS1

The Porsches have a rear mounted engine so a rear mounted turbo is a given.
