Default turbo manifold.......tubing size?

im building a log manifold for a front mount. Most use 2.5'' crossover and for the manifold, but should i use 1 5/8 or 1 3/4 for the primaries?

There is only an 1/8" in difference, with a turbo manifold it's not going to make any difference.

Go for whatever has a thicker wall. If they're both the same, then get whatevers cheaper. The primaries are so short on a log setup, that the difference in volume would be neglegible.
