be best to work it out from the engine bay...

you have a couple of options... 120 degree bend from the plenum across the top of the engine and down to drivers side of the engine bay.... less piping... BUT it has a 90 degree bend which shouldnt be a major issue seeing as i have seen shiteloads done like that on HiPo cars.

or

the std way.... across the engine the way the std piping goes then a 90 degree bend to the front of the engine bay and another 90 degree bend to go across the front between the engine and the radiator and down to the front.

same as the cooler you'd think huh, unless you mean the actual pipe. Mines is alloy and is around 2.5mm - 3.0mm at a guess.
