2003 2004.5 boost elbow

im looking for a new truck and im looking in the 2003 2004 and up years but i know that the 2004.5 and up turbos are to be better since you dont have to buy a boost elbow how can i tell if i have the newer style turbo or boost elbow and not the older type such as description and possibly pics thanks

Well, when you look in the engine compartment, just look on the valve cover for the white sticker with the hp rating.

305hp H.O is from 2003-2004 hx35 turbo manual wastegate
325hp H.O is from 2004.5-2007 hx40 electronic wastegate
