1) Buy some 2.5" Stainless U-bend off ebay.

2) Buy Silicone couplers off someone on Ebay

3)Buy T-bolt clamps off someone on ebay

BAM! You have a "kit". Go find someone with a welder or if you have one yourself go to it.

i bought a universal kit when i had my turbo ohv. the only bends that were actually useful were the 90 degree bends. the 45s and the straight pieces were pretty much just a waste. like they said above, i'd just order a bunch of aluminum 90s and go from there. it will probably cost less that way

No. For mild steel I use a local performance shop called Mopac. For stainless or aluminium ebay works as do many online places. You will need 3-4 u bends and maybe a few feet of straight. Another option is to buy the pipiong from a local metal place and then take it somewhere with either a mandrel bender or a draw bender and have the bends make for you.

Alot of local exhaust shops may have a mandrel bending machine. I know there were a few in the town I'm from. There's also a shop where I live now I know that does it. Call around. If not check out these guys on ebay. This is the shop here by me in Maryland:
