I think there would be a tremendous turbo lag, due to the compressibility of
the air in both directions, to and from the turbos.

Yeah, likely the place left it would fit. I have seen the rear turbo kits on a
vett' and it seems like a huge mess to do, not sure how well they work either.
My friends site had a piece on them, and seemed like BS on the MPG part, but
that's just me.

One of the pictures shows a turbo installed just ahead of the rear axle-
where most people have their muffler. There's some 'outside the box'
thinking!
