it can be done, it requires excessive plumbing which would mean that your turbo would be at the bottom of the firewall. probably not worth it. the turbo will pull it along fast enough :D

A turbo relies on the explosive gasses coming out of the combustion chamber to make it spin
therefore the futher it is away from the exhuast valve the less efficent it is. the best way to get more power is to reduce back preasure eg larger diameter exhuast after the turbo charger :)
