im having the biggest headache of finding a turbo manifold for my 7afe(besides buying new)

so i have figured out what im going to do
im going to do a rear mount turbo by my rear bumper
im thinking a small 14b size turbo
hopefully this turbo will help with the big amount of lag im going to have with exhaust and then boost
im probably going to have to go with a turbo with double fin propelers to make up for boost

does anybody know if this has ever been done?
i know its a waste of performance on my part due to a more performance set up would be a front turbo
im not worried about how fast i can go. i like to be different. thats why i have gold wheels lol
i think it would be the only rear mount celica in my area or maybe in the world(world is doubtful lol)
but whos knows

any tips on what turbo to use?

i talked to sts again. they told me stage 3 is the best way to go. but what conserns me is they said they will match the turbo to my car. if im going to pay 3 grand for a turbo set up im going to want the bigger and better turbo. if the turbo is to much for my setup then i can always turn around and sell the turbo and buy another and should have a little cash left over. im just confused on what turbo set up i want. front and rear. i can get a guy to make me a manifold out of a d series honda turbo manifold. this way would be cheaper. if i make my own set up for rear mount then ill have to find a small pump for my oil return line. to me the oil should flow back to the motor because you have pressure going into the high pressure oil line. the oil has to go somewhere. i have heard return lines are gravity fed. i dont know a whole lot about turbos. with whatever set up i go with. do i need to get a map sensor?
if so can someone explain to me what this is? i am a mechanic but i deal with buses at the ohio state university college.
thanks for any help i can get lol
