Default putting together some intercooler piping

i tried posting this in forced induction and didnt get much...so anyways, im getting a greddy 19t kit and adding an intercooler and bov...what i cant figure out is what to do about the piping to the intercooler...i dont think it will be very much piping, but i still need to get it done...can ANYONE tell me what to do...i called a local exhaust shop that does mandrel bent...and the guy acted like i was crazy....i just need to know what kind and how much piping to get...and then i need to know where to take it to get it welded after i cut them to size

I just looked at it.. visualized it, after looking at ALOT of other pics on here.

And ordered what i thought i would need.. using all 2.5" stainless (wish i woulda gone with aluminum)..

Anyways, the cold side turned out how i pictured, the hot side on the other hand.. was a bit different.

EF's are Tight!
