You don't need sudo su centos because your script would be interrupted by a terminal. If the following commands are actually "./install.sh" (like) that have to be started by "centos" user, then you can do the following modification:

sudo adduser centos
sudo passwd centos
usermod -aG wheel centos
sudo su - centos -c ./install.sh
sudo su - centos -c ./install_another.sh

sudo su - centos -c "./install_more.sh ; cd /tmp ; ./install_almostlast.sh"

sudo su - centos -c bash -c "cd /somewhere; ./install_more.sh
        cp /tmp/files /somewhere
        ./install_last.sh
        rm /tmp/install.sh"

Between double quotes you can write a whole script if you want and are careful of the content and quoting.
