Default rear mounted turbo

never heard of a rear mounted turbo but i just bought a car with it done.... except the intake is going thru the trunk... yes the hose (tubing) for the intake is going thru the trunk the previous owner said he was gonna continue and put it thru the side panel... any suggestions on what i should do... and how much would ur suggestion cost?

is this car you bought with a rear mount turbo, that YOU HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT (not real smart in any case not just this), a blue civic with meshes?....

word of advice... dont buy something you have no idea about. it can end up costly....

what are you exactly asking? what to do with the intake as far as moving it for maximum efficencey(sp*)?
