compound setups traditionally go like this:exhaust manifold to high pressure turbo to low pressure turbo to downpipeair filter to low pressure turbo to high pressure turbo to intakehigh pressure turbo being the smaller of the two.this way the exhaust has less volume to spool the small turbo quickly, and the intake volume after the high pressure compressor is reduced keeping volume induced lag to a minimum.once the high pressure turbo has spooled and the motor is making enough exhaust gasses to spool the large turbo, the high pressure wastegate opens and the high pressure turbo effectively freewheels.apparently the risk of overspeeding is low as long as a suitably large wastegate is used to bypass the exhaust past it to the low pressure turbo.
its not really about the pressure.

So i confirmed that the exhaust turbine is indeed 60mm and the compressor wheel was about 75-80mm in diameter. in the midst of taking the compressor wheel off to give it a good clean.Edit: I actually managed to get it back on exactly where it was when it came off. that was my next question. cause theres definitely some big balance marks on that compressor. and it needs to be where it was. else the turbo is gonna go *BOOM*
