(as well as pressure between motor and turbo) the further away you put the turbo, the lower the exhaust energy will be (and exhaust pressure is lower), and so the less energy there is available to spin the turbine.. smaller turbine = smaller compressor = less air moved.. you would need a smaller turbo at this position to reduce lag, but you wil also not get much benefit from it since the compresor will also be smaller... it might be good on large capacity, low revving motors with limited range of rpm... 4. probably... but would you want to deliberately reduce the size of your exhaust?? again, good for limited rpm perhaps.... although it is a good idea to move hot turbo away from engine bay.. think of it as just running a 3m turbo manifold, and 3M inlet back to engine... thats a lot of volume of gas before and after the turbo!!! i guess basically.. smaller turbo, smaller benefit... could be a good solution if you only want 2 or 3psi perhaps....
