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?

well i drive 100 miles a day to work and back
i have my celica(good mpg) and my 01 silverado v8(horrible gas mileage)
so the less my celica is down the better
i dont care about tearing it apart for a weeked or 2
so while my motor is turbod im going to build another 1
we all no a n/a motor wont hold up very long to boost lol

i unstand what your saying and this would be the cheaper and better way to go
but if you think i can get a 7afe motor for 150
car will be down for a weekend getting turbod
once other motor is built ill throw it in(another weekend)
but if my cars down for a month then it'll be 80 dollars a week in gas for my truck times 4 equals 320 dollars in just gas for my truck
celica 35 at week times 4 equals 140
so im saving 180 in gas this way give or take a little money for gas after its turbod
