Just take a ruler and measure the openings. I think they are 2.0".

Of the top of my head I think the 90* is a 2" and the lower IC one is 2'->2.25" straight reducer. Don't quote me on that, I could be wrong.

The 90 coming off the turbo is 2" id and the one under the fuse box is 2" > 2 1/4" id.

The 90* off the turbo is 2" -> 2" the next connection is 2" -> 2 1/4" (which is a straight connector) the rest of the connections are 2 1/4". Not sure if the one to the throttle body is 2 1/4 on the TB side though...

EDIT: (not sure how long this picture will work...)
You can see here one 90* is bigger than the other and both connectors don't appear to taper any and one is clearly bigger than the other. Also, the staight connecter on the far left is the one from the piping from the turbo to the piping that goes to the pipe that goes to the intercooler... its the only one that tapers and its the 2" -> 2 1/4"

You will want to replace the 90 at the turbo with a silicne one...heat killed mine after about a year or so. All of the other 90's seem to hold up ok.
