Adjusting Boost

I Have 2003 So with a five speed. Also a Edge EZ with the boost elbow. My question is is there a way to get the boost down to about 30 lbs or so. I can hit 25 without the elbow and 35 with it . I understand that any higher than 34-35 is getting beyond the stock turbos ability. I don't want to explode the turbo. I usually pull aroud 10,000 lbs with my trailer and three horses. Egts haven't been an issue although without the elbow they are considerably higher.

With the banks big head I'll see around 31-33, plus you can adjust the spring tension a little lower if you want. They are kindof expensive though. You may be able to drill your existing boost elbow just a hair, if you screw up they're on ebay all day long for $10-15. I got my big head for $160.
