This may be a bit of a bone question but how many links is the "correct amount" to romove on a new chain?

Decided to just but a new chain as the shimano one I had been fighting with over the last few days, finally beat me so just bought a new KMC.

I quickly realised it was a tad too long so referred to the distuctions and it told me in a roundabout way that I have to remove some links....but not how many.

CiB I'm looking at you kidda! :)

    Same length as the old one? Or thread large ring to large ring and add 2 links.

    Thanks for the advice.
