DIY Pressure Tester

Hey guys I;ve done a few searches on how to make a pressure tester to test for boost leaks on the Evo....but I don't think the size hose i got 2.5'" OD is going to fit on the turbo for compression. I got a 1.5" PVC pipe end for the other end and it hardly fit inside it. Anyone have an suggestion of how to construct one of these things or at lease some dimension to use as a reference when I got buy more ****? Thanks!

A 2.5 inch Diameter rubber coupler (Home Depot plumbing section) fits over the compressor. And a 2.5 inch Diameter male plug will fit in the IC piping. I know, I made a tester!
