I suppose some of the pressure drop caused by all the plumbing could be made up for a bit by the location of the CAI... And manifold design doesn't really pose a problem with one of those puppies.

Colder exhaust air hitting exhaust wheel means less heat being transferred to the intake and so could in some cases defeat the need for an intercooler... cheap and nasty intercoolers and poorly routed pipework cause quite a pressure drop.

I'd imagine cops would be less likely to notice your turbo if it was near your diff too.

Theres no way it could compare to an the under hood mounted turbo with a decent manifold and CAI though... but for people trying to squeeze a turbo into a car that already has a V8 engine shoved in a straight 6 sized engine bay it could have some great benifits.
