There is a company called Squires making kits like that for cars and pick-ups. http://www.ststurbo.com/industry_experts It is nice 'cause the turbos are out back, not in the engine bay. I don't think they optimise the boost though, they have to be small to keep the lag in check.

I guess this is more of a mid-mount setup:

I think that a rear mount setup requires considerably different turbine sizing for a given application. While exhaust energy is flowing back to the turbo(s), heat energy is lost. So, you size the turbine of the turbocharger smaller so it requires less energy to spool.

Something to consider is variable vane turbochargers. I won't get started preaching about how awesome I think some of them are...but I think they have some GREAT advantages! If you're interested, do a little google searching on HE351VE or HE431VeTi, HE551VE, ect.

Have a good day!
Michael
