Lol, I have a maroon 4dr sleeper too! Except its still slow - 1/8th as many injectors, half the cylinders, and 1/3 the displacement. :3 My red sedan was ~200whp though...

The only thing I don't like about that is the front - it looks just like a Crown Vic.

I never posted this pic, this is what I did with the wastegate. It just vents into the right tip. I might make a shield to go around it so from the back you can't see light through the tip, looks a little goofy if you see it at the right angle.

Turbine tip looks much cooler from the business end ;D

you can try welding a flat plate on the WG tip, then punch a hole thru it for the WG & weld 'er up ;D

IMO it will work as good as any turbo, just have to size it right. The turbine will need to be smaller than it would be if it were mounted up front due to the lower exhaust temps at the rear.

Go for it! Boost that Hyundai, lol. I've read about a bunch of people that busted out a rear mount setup in a weekend. If you aren't as ---- about the details and looks as I am you could do this pretty quickly. My car was harder than some due to the limited space underneath for the compressor pipe. Some vehicles have tons of room and are also much easier to get the charge pipe into the engine bay. Been thinking about throwing a turbo in my beater Toyota p/u for a while now. That one would be slam dunk!

This gives me an idea...i have a 92 buick skylark that nobody wants to buy. It could use a remote mount turbo setup :8

Its even maroon like your Q45

I was playing around with the Windows movie maker and made a project video with build pics and some driving clips. Here's the link to the video on Streetfire.net

The next production will have the dyno videos and a few other shots, maybe a walk around and some car to car shots.
