Default Howmanybends(i've searched, need a quick answer)

ok,i am making custom cahrge piping, t3/t04e on a b16a in a 99si, drivers side compressor placement.

I need to know how many 90*,45* and straight aluminum pieces i need, standard piping routing, also, should i go 2.25, 2, or 2.5 inch on the turbo to ic side?

my guess would be 4 90's??? Just thinking about how the pipes would go. 2" is probably too small. 2.25 from turbo to IC would be good and 2.5 the rest of the way, but i would think straight 2.5 would be easiest to do since all the piping will be the same size. (Ie: you have an extra 2.5" but you need a 2.25" inch piece.) Someone is going to correct this tho since ive never made chargepipes (yet).

i usually do 2.25 on driver side. youll need 3 90 s for the driver and about 2-3 feet of straight youll hve some extra but always good to buy a lil more

passanger side. one 45, three 90's and 2 feet of straight

mine was done with i believe 6 90's and 1 long 180 bend. I had to run mine all crazy though because my compressor is on the driver side with outlet clocked up.
