Default Custom DP U-bends

Evoeone and I are gonna try and make a custom DP: 2.5" flared to 3" like in the pic. Will 4" radius bends do, or will i need tigher ones?

Best part is... that retains A/C! That's badass.

i dont understand why you guys dont run the turbos with teh compressors on the drivers side, thats way its closer to the ic, teh DP just goes down and back, and doesnt have to cross in front of the DP. ive seen a few compressors on the drivers side, but 90% on here i see are with the compressor on the passengers side

I think I know what u mean..
Maybe its just because most don't want the compressor to take place where the a/c or powersteering is, and maybe they want to use piping out in the market for the compressor on the passenger side.

u might be able to use a "donut" for a tighter radius. it looks like u can get a 2.5" donut with a 2.5" radius from road race engineering
