Dude, 88mm turbos have been used for rear mounts. If you don't have enough ground clearance something is wrong.

I know from what i have seen that most people who have rear mounts have a metal bar welded to the rear and hang the turbo from it since the turbo is usually to heavy for the exhaust piping to hold....

I'd contact Bill Devine at Bullseye Power. He has a big turbine wheel available in a T3 .70 a/r housing. Couple that with one of their BatmoWheel 62 or 64mm compressors and you'd have insta spool and plenty of airflow in a very compact package.
