Default Cold/Hot side Turbo Piping?

Hey guys i've been doing a lot of reading and brainstorming for a mild turbo build I want to do down the road. It's going to be a custom setup so I need to fab up the cold and hot side piping. My question is, where are you guys getting your stainless or plain steel pipes from? I'm looking for preferably prebent pipes that I can modify. And also I will need some couplers obviously so I could use that info also.

Thanks
