get out your ruler, figure out how you want to run it and measure... The U bends are pretty big I would guess one of those would be enough

Depends where you flare it since one 90 may be 2.5" and the other 3". Generally you need just shy of 180* for a DP maybe 200* if you put the compressor on the wrong (IMO passenger) side.

just buy one 2.5" and one 3" you'll have extra to make a toy for your hamster...or an intake for your camaro.

It should take you 1 U bend pipe from each diameter
