It's single pipe from the exhaust port to the turbo turbine inlet.
WG's are integrated, so no mess of pipes just for the wastegates.
You can get an idea of the pipe routing just by looking at the location of the turbos.
Single pipe "downpipes."
"Hard" part is all the merges - both inlet and exhaust side of things...

BTW, those look like GT28RS's?
I don't think they are the larger GT28R's, since those run the larger T4 compressor covers...

Do you see IWG's on the turbos, also they are gt28r. Do I need to take a pic of the invoice just to prove they are what they are.

No, I do not SEE the wastegates in your pic.
Sure, you're welcome to use EXTERNAL wastegates on your turbos.
GT28's all come with internal wastegates?
External wastegates just add to complexity, which in turns adds costs to your kits.
If you're trying to keep costs down, adding external wastegates doesn't make any sense.
If you're trying to make a no-cost-limit kit, then add the complexity with external wastegates.

"GT28R" is a FAMILY of Garrett turbos.
The "GT28RS" is just one model under the "GT28R" family.
Why don't you tell us what exact GT28R model did you use instead of getting your panties in a bunch?
