[QUOTE="r.barn, post: 12072630, member: 123117"] The main draw back on the rear mount is turbo distance from engine. Rule #1 in designing a turbo system is to have the turbo as close to the engine as possible. Period. Hot exhaust gasses impart more energy to the turbine wheel than cooled gases. Period. Rear mounting a turbo should always be a last resort when space is just not available. (like in the S197 5.0 engine bay, lol) Beyond that the real problem with rear mounts are all the extra parts needed to make them work right. oil return pumps, check valves, ect. ect., but it can be done right if the right parts are used in the right places. Look where that air charger return pipe is running .......STS is junk that takes unacceptable short cuts. ... [/QUOTE]
