Wouldn't it work better if they exhaust pulses from both rotors going to each turbo?

yes, they are between 1200-1500each. they could make it for any turbo you want though, as long as its internal wastegate

$1200-1500 isn't too bad if they work well. Just spinning while cranking isn't enough to sell me, however. My T-78 used to spin after I shut off my motor.
