on the hummers the turbo is between the heads instead of the outside on the passenger side. anyone know if there is any performance advantages to this?

6.5 hummer turbo setup

I think the only reason is fitment/packaging. Unless I'm mistaken the G vans got the center turbo too.

I don't know how the Hummer setup is but the G van was rear mounted not on top, or side.

maybe it is on the backside. can only find a few pic's of it. i would like to put mine up on top like the dmax to give me more room under the hood when i stick it in my burb. thanks guys.
There are no real performance advantages - the center/rear turbo setup was done for fitment in vans and HMMWV's.
If you're putting the turbo in a pickup/Blazer/Burb, I'd probably pass on the turbo HMMWV/van setup. The heads, intakes, injector lines, exhaust, and oil feed/return system are all unique. You'll also have interference issues with your firewall.
