Default Looking for remote mounted Turbo pics...

Thinking of doing a rear mounted turbo, but I need some ideals on how to route my tubing for a 4x4. Post pics if you have some.

Thanks.

Any instrumentation done to determine the effectiveness of an intercooler in that location?

It seems to work pretty well, intake temps level out at 10 degrees above ambient temps measured before the tb, even in 110+ degree heat over the summer. I thought about adding a scoop on the bottom to help it out at cruising speed, but the idea of it being a trap for rocks and sand on unpaved roads and trails was the deterrent so I only have 2 1200cfm fans on top drawing air through

I have towed my 22' boat to the lake which is goes through a good amount of elevation changes on the way along with a trip from Vegas to Reno it worked fine without much tempreature increase.

It it the same overall and core size as the one on my car, the one on my car has 2.5" inlet and outlets compared to the 3" on the one that I am selling. I was going to install two of them stacked together infront of my dodge ram, until I ran came across a much larger one that I used instead.

My yukon runs around 7.5lbs from 1800rpm and up
