You cut and weld them to fit.

ok dude, im gona help you out, IC kits come with U-bends (yes, that was a nice deduction, they are bent in the shape of a U) Some U bends have a shorter radius' (yes, this means they have a tighter bend) then others. If you can't make the turn with this bend, then you either need to cut and weld the pipe, or go to something flexible(rubber, like Rad hose ok?)

When you get a 'pipe bender' it can only bend the pipe a certain amount, after that it kinks its (it already crushes it while its bending it anyway) so you can't even bend it as much as U bends are (they are bent with a 30k machine, or formed in a U)

the only kind of ic piping ive ever used was that flexable exhaust ----, it was my 1st turbo project, and non of my friends are into "cars" so i dont have too much experience with turbo's, so i get called a complete retard for asking a simple damn question?

Then you are either gonna have to get a welder or take it to an exhaust shop. Mucho couplers would be considered ghetto by some. But ghetto on this site means awesome, so I don't even know where I'm going with this.

you can cut the bents to whatever length/angle that you will need. then connect them with couplers.
