You could try using foreman installer(aka as plain puppet modules)[1], which does take care for the following
1. apache configuration + passenger 2. puppet master (with optional dynamic git branches / environments) 3. foreman stuff if you don't need storeconfigs, then you don't have to use it. if you need to scale to more than one master, my guess is that the main thing to overcome is the CA setup (single CA server etc) and thats the kind of knowledge you need to have regardless of an installer.
