Default What bends should I order for closed loop wastegate dumptube?

I tried to find someone that sells one pre-fabricated, since I have a pretty common setup, but had no luck finding anything. I have an Inline Pro manifold, Turbosmart Ultragate, and an Inline Pro 2.5" downpipe. So far, I ordered a stainless wastegate flange, and the smallest flex section I could find (1.75" x 4").

So, now I need to order the 1.5" stainless piping, but I don't know how many U bends, straight sections, and other angles I might need. I want this to merge at the very end of the downpipe at a narrow angle to avoid turbulence I didn't know where else to post this. Can somebody please help me, because I plan to take all this stuff to a welder and need to make sure all the parts are there. Thanks!

get a metal coat hanger, straighten it out and then shape it to what you want it to do....that should give you a good idea of what kinda bends you will need and how much material you should order
