Default fan belt size?

I'm working on wrapping up my turbo build and just wanted to know if anyone has any idea what size belt I might need for my car?

Here is a photo of my setup thus far, It's a PTK kit so I am retaining the stock idler but have relocated my alternator to the location in the pic and as you can see I am also using the stock tensioner.

Any recomendations are greatly appreciated, thanks guys!

Get a string and messure. Too many variables to guess. What crank pulley and who made the relocation bracket.

String method is the best. Get a couple sizes and see which one fits, return the others. Shouldn't take long to do the whole process.

Thanks guys i've used the string method before but just thought someone might have a similar setup to mine. I totally forgot about the different crank pulley options and the slightly different alt location. Thanks for the advice
