Default intercooler piping and connections

ok so im finally getting around to installing my fmic. the greddy fmic i have has 2" outlets, so i need two 2"-2.5" transitions, hump hoses, and t-clamps. do i need anything else? what is the best way to connect it to my throttle body? i saw some people use napa intercooler hose, will that hold w/ a gt28rs? what about the APR upgraded TB hose? would my 2.5" piping fit into that? and would that be a better alternative than the napa hose? or is there an even better alternative?

If you're looking for the silicone couplers, check out www.bakerprecision.com - they have a ton of different reducing couplers (as well as about any other kind of coupler out there), plus silicone hose, etc, and most of it is available by the foot. I've bought from them before for my Z's intercooler system and it's high-quality stuff.

its a greddy intercooler with 2" outlets. im gona get an exhaust shop to bend the pipes for me, but i just want to know what is the best way to connect to the TB. im gona get 2" to 2.5" reducers and the rest of the piping i'll just use 2.5" hump couplers.
