Buy prebent 45/90/J/U sections and piece them together (weld usually). Locally finding someone with a mandrel bender is going to be hard and very expensive.

Yes, you're going to want to debur those. Really though, you should find someone with a bead roller if you're going ot make any cuts. The bead is pretty important in keeping the rubber/silicone couplers from popping off under boost.

10 PSI is pretty low, but it's still good insurance for later. You'll be turning up the boost sometime, trust me. It's just too easy to add power..
