Squire's Turbo System
http://www.ststurbo.com/products
Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I know I've seen it in a number of places but I don't remember if this was on of them. It usually gets the same response about turbo lag and what not, but I'm thinking this might be worth trying on an SVX. I was watching some show the other day where four shops customized a Chevy HHR and one used this system to put in a rear turbo and it got me interested. I think it's just good in that they are ultimately pretty cheap, you don't have to buy intercoolers or custom fabricate a manifold or pay 500-1000 bucks for one, and in a bay like ours where space in an issue this could be great.

I think I'll end up being the stage2 / infiniti MAF / rear turbo guinea pig as soon as my house sells.
If all else fails, I can simply move the turbo forward. -Patrick

Sorry for the repost =(
I'm seriously considering this also, as it will be much cheaper than any other project I'm currently thinking about attempting lol.... The only deal breaker for me is I have a motor with 130,000 miles and the stock tranny with probably just as many on it and I'm not sure they're gunna like it all that much.

How are you gonna control your fuel?
You're gonna need more control than the stock computer can handle most likely. Maybe a megasquirt II ? As well as upgrading to larger injectors. You'll max out the oem ones. Turbos are a gr8 idea, but not for the svx. You can't teach a pig to fly!  Not an svx but a remote turbo install http://www.dakotausa.com/vBulletin/s...ad.php?t=25826
