Do you have each turbo running off its own bank or did you split the exhaust as they tie together & run the accumulative exhaust to both?

How about a log for each side showing back pressure to fill us in on how the motor is viewing those turbos as a pair.

& why do the HP power curves end but the torque keeps going.

Not enough info in the pic to ascertain a definitive performance based on torque/RPM.

& what if it's not just waste gates?

Looks like that was an aborted run ( would assuem the boost was on its way to a spike by looking at the curve). The other run looks like it was a full pull.



Are they the same gates? Do they have the same springs?

You should have asked how he felt 2 different size turbos with 2 different gate springs would work.


Glad to see the project finally getting on track!
