Setting up a 3sgte fmic Options

[6g25th]

I'm not to this point quite yet, but I'll be there pretty soon. I got a hiprospeed 3" core and a universal 3" intercooler pipe kit. What I am wondering is for those of you who have set up an fmic for a 3rd gen 3s, is a universal pipe kit enough for this set up? I've been looking at other people's set up's and it looks to me like Ima need more pipe. I was wondering if any of you could tell me exactly what bends Ima need to run from the intake manifold and from the turbo? I'm gonna remove the window washer reservior so I don't have to run the pipe under the frame rail and I would like to weld the pipes, but at this point it looks like ima use cupplers until I can find someone to weld. One last thing, does it really make much of a difference welding the pipe as aposed to using cupplers???

a good fabricator should be able to make a god FMIC kit with a generic pipe kit.
