Default Turbos out the hood?

So a big ole' blower poking out the hood looks awesome as we all know, but has anyone ever seen a couple turbos poking up through the hood that looks good too? Any pics?!

One missing head light ring and 1100 miles of bugs but here is my Pontiac powered Triumph.

That sure seems like the way to go?! Fresh air and less heat in the engine bay. Why don't more people run this way? Seems like it would solve some tricky placement problems as well.

Lemans411's new turbo build is over the top, mine is the same engine since 2006, but the rest of the combo is just about sorted out, hoping to run pretty hard the next time out.

Nice! I have a guy at work that is fully capable of narrowing my frame and setting it up for big tires. Just have to find a way to sucker him into doing it. Twin turbos wont do me much good if it wont hook. More suspention research to do too.
