Default 6.5 question

didn't GM make a 6.5L where the turbo ran off of both exhaust manifolds?

there is a cross over pipe that connects the two banks of cylinders. go look underneath your truck. its going to look like this but yours is going to be rusted and smaller

you would only make half the boost you are right now and the exhaust pressure would not be equal
