You're not going to find a blueprint. Anyway, just make the up pipes that come off each bank the same diameter as the stock collectors. I THINK they are 2", not sure though. Easiest way is to measure. Merge the two pipes into a 2.5" pipe. As for your downpipe, just make it 2.5" due to room constraints. You can go 3", but it's not necessary unless you plan on big boost.

Okay but you are talking about steel hose or rubber hose. My question is how am I supposed to hook up my bov with a rubber pipe.
And also what is the proper order in which to place the Vaf. I'm not too sure where that goes like before or after the bov

You need to do some research on how to turbo your car before you spend alot of money or spend too little and blow your motor. Look at wikipedia or buy Corky Bell's turbo book- Maximum Boost.

See the reason why I want to do rubber hose is because the intercooler fits between fender wall and chassis where many run their cai. I see absolutly no point in but all this piping and only using like 5 feet. You see how srt4s come with rubber hose and they use blow off valve on the stock hose. That's kinds what I mean

rubber hose for intercooler piping is dumb.. use metal piping in the reinforced silicone couplers.. the dsm's use rubber hose for intercooler stock but its gay lol

use steel or aluminum. its safer and you dont worry about blow outs then
