Default What pipings do i need?

Okay, I'm running a t25 homemadeturbo in my 1990 civic Si with SMIC. Now my question is, what kinda pipings do I need to complete my set-up? Like size of the tube, and degrees of bend for the tubings. BTW, I already had a AEM shortram intake tube, so that's additional tubing for me. So just list em what I need to complete my chit.

Thanks

If you're going to stay below 10psi, then 2" pipe will be plenty... Just get some mandrel bends to keep it smooth. There are some on ebay. With 2" pipe, the flow from the turbo will be better. Don't go too big, and surely don't get too small.

Yeah, I'm probably boosting below 10 psi, but thier are like diff kinds of bend degrees. I don't know which one to get?


So i should be good with 2" If i run below 10 psi, cool..

What I did in my bros CRX is mesured the OD of the intercooler inlet and outlet and got the same size for better air flow. So I think 2" will do ya..
