Default how to run cold side pipeing?

So iv been thinking about purchasing 1 of modular turbo's truck manifold kits which dosent include cold side piping. I don't have a welder or even know how to weld so I will be using silicone couples and t bolt clamps. So my question is what piping is needed for it and what bends and such? Thanks guys

You can pick up a universal kit off of ebay and get a bunch of various bends. I actually bought the CXRacing kit for a mustang and made mine.

If you cut pieces to get the bends you want, make sure you have them bead rolled.

Bead roll keeps your coupler from blowing off under boost.

They have 2 different size kits, just get the one that you think will have the bends you need. I used some tig welding rods to mock up some of my bends when trying to figure out which kit would work for me.
