They installed one of those systems on 2 Guys Garage on an LS1 car and did dyno tests before and after. I can't remember the numbers but it was pretty good. With the long turbo to intake pipe it allows the charge to cool so no intercooler is needed and it will produce as much or even more boost than a front mount. You don't need a muffler with it because the turbo knocks down the sound of the exhaust. But it seems strange to drive that setup in bad weather.
