 Just saw this thread; in Atlanta, in 1978, there was a couple of guys named Tom Wyat and Tom Gage(they used to work for Bob McQueen who successfully race a Datsun 2000) who formed a small company called "TURBO TOMS".
They had turbocharged a J-H and just by a stroke of luck, I happened to see the car(they were right next to the C&S Bank I used). I believe the car belonged to someone in Milwukee?? and they were quite irritated as the owner had turned up the boost and fried the engine.
The turbo was in the engine compartment, not in the rear; I have no idea what components they used and have no idea what happened to the car, its owner, and the Toms.
Maybe a GOOGLE search might help.
good luck, bruce
