Externally Mounted Turbos / Hood exit exhaust Suggestion???

Hey there,
Since we all know how compact the engine bay is in the BRZ/GT86/FR-S especially with a turbo/supercharger kit added to it. I was wondering why nobody has come-up with a turbo setup where the turbo itself is mounted in a way where you don't cramp up the engine bay. Or why not even a hood exit exhaust so you don't have to have a exhaust pipe that goes all the way to the back of the car? I know it's 100% illegal in most countries but honestly I've seen crazier swaps/mods but nothing like I mentioned and most of the people who own the 86 have another car as their daily.












The only thing I found is a video of an Arab guy having a hood exit exhaust and that's it. Here's the vid :

Here are some pictures I found online (examples):








It's my first thread so be nice ..
