I approve of this post. Was looking at where the exhaust is routed in the 86/BRZ and I think for small turbos they can in fact be mounted in the back. Intake and intercooling plumbing would be an issue though, unless... a battery relocation kit maybe? Mount it high up?
pretty sure gushi still runs a 3S-GTE
