You know, as much detail has been put into that '57 chevy, you would think he would find a way to route that first wastegate hose to match the rest. :doh:
As far as the first set-up on this thread, I hope he spec'ed those turbos correctly, 'cause upgrading is gonna cost plenty.

I bet that turbo setup in the first post is ultra responsive though.

Seeing that 57 in person its about the last thing you notice or care about because everything is just SO INCREDIBLE

I'm sure, but it just sticks as one of those "If you're going to go and do all that, why not fix this too?" things.
The lack of mandrel bent piping for the compressor side seems odd too. With that much work in it you would have thought he would have done mandrel bent all around.
The first one is a cool concept and would be very responsive, but the single wastegate would cause issues down the road as the turbo's wear different and aren't matched any more.

True he could have anodized them and atleast done stainless or something or atleast gotten red hose...
