Default twin turbo custom fab

I've got a couple months before I head off to boot camp and I got a buddy who is good with fabrication. we were thinkin about making my own twin turbo plumbing. Any ideas on what type of pipe to use? For the cold pipe and hot pipe. Any input would be great guys. Don't have a whole lot of cash for a kit. I can get the s474 but that's about it.

I used Aluminized exhaust pipe. I bought 45's and 90's, then just cut and weld. Make sure you grind off about an inch of the material on each end of the weld area before welding. The fumes are bad, and the weld will be cleaner.
