Humm. I just looked under my hood, and I don't see how the hell anything like that could fit under there.. the suspension/steering parts, namely, would be in the way..
And.. there isn't exactly tons of room for plumbing in the engine bay anyways.. how would you run the exhaust out of the turbine? Maybe underneath the sway bar/steering stuff.. but then ground clearance becomes an issue..
Those pics peaked my interest, but it seems like something like that would be VERY difficult in our cars..
Maybe I'll go stare at my engine bay some more and an idea will come to me, or something...

he may be doing something like the GN guys do & just run the exhaust tube out a hole in the front fender, to the Pass side of the car. that thing looks pretty much full boogie, so dont see a need for a muffin. that looks like a ton of fun.

Hey man just go to the old Vbelt system, then hang the alternator low with the S&P bracket. Then install the turbo on the right side like Gale Banks did in 1986. You ever see that setup? That's the best fitting turbo TPI setup I have seen. I tried to have a manifold cast for this a few years back, but nobody was interested in a five piece run, and I just was not in the mood to build header's. So I just stuck on the serpentine brackets, and bolted on the huffer.
