Default Where should the flex pipe go on my exhaust?

The guy i got my turbo kit from had problems with bolts coming loose and the manifold was cracked. Did some research and found out there should be a flexpipe somewhere on my exhuast.

WHERE and how big of a flexpipe?

Here's my downpipe if that helps......

Well you're still using the stock flex pipe connector for the cat, so technically you don't need one, but i guess if you wanted to install one i'd put it on the straight part of the pipe near where the pipe connects to the cat, or on the straight part going down from the turbo.

It needs to go in the down portion of the pipe closest to the turbo..
I had mine there with zero problems..
for reference check out full races downpipe they sell for their kits.

^closest to the turbo??? there really isn't much room there between the bends. I was thinking to put it after the bend closer to the O2 censor. Think that would be a bad idea?

What size flexpipe should i get? Cant be too long if it's gotta be between the bends on closer to the turbo.
