I noticed a lot of people using an elbow right off the turbo to route their turbo to ic piping. What angle is it. /im using an x02 manifold.

depends on the position of the turbo

the turbo can be clocked different ways. mine is a 90 as well as a few people on here, but i have also seen some with a 45* elbow on it.

9 times out of 10 it will be a 90 though.

i have a generic SSQV and i don't get any surge at all, and im even on stock rubber and plastic IC pipes.

its the most logical due to space.

once you get the manifold and turbo test fitted on the engine in the bay, you will notice that there's no real option OTHER than 90*

Is everyone doing the tight 90 bend?

yeah, it's basically the only way. You don't have to weld it to the turbo though. I have a bend in the pipe coming off the turbo. Granted the heat from the exhaust cooks the silicone coupler on the turbo. I'm going to weld on the 90 eventually.

there is a pipe kit on ebay that has a bunch of 90 degree bends that have rolled edges and comes with decent silicone couplers and t-bolt clamps. it worked fine for me when i swapped in my first 2jz.
