Default primary sizes

quick question, I am making some log manifolds for a single turbo set up. What size weld elbows are folks using manifolds like these?

thanks,

2.5" I think is what most people use...

No, the primaries need to be 1 5/8" for greater velocity or or 1 3/4" for greater volume. The up pipes to the turbo can be 2 1/4" for more gas velocity, or 2 1/2" for more volume.
