i was watching the speed channel and saw that they installed a turbo into the back of the exhaust pipes on a corvette. it looked sweet and sound awesome when the test drove it. Imagine a Turbo in the engine bay and an additional turbo used for the exhaust - . If I remember correctly the turbo was adding near the rear bumper of the corvette and the end piece was the exhaust tip. Any one heard about this - it would be awesome on a celica

yeah its just as effective as a regular turbo bcuz since it is away from all the hot engine components it run about anywhere from 50-100 degrees cooler, and lag is not as much of and issue as you think, as long as u really make sure all ur connections are right. also the install is greatly simplified. But right now i have only seen them for high end domestics. but there is STS universal system i think. i think a remote set-up used in conjuction with a variable geometry turbo would be a tremendous set-up. the colder charge more than makes up for the small lag, in fact the air is so much more cold and dense that u can a few PSI lower and still get the same HP #s as a normal set-up.
