OK, as of this morning my truck is running an adjustable boost elbow, spiked up to 38 and holds 29-30 regular, before spiked to 31 and held 24-26. I wonder how high it will hold with a load on? The biggest problem I had was the clamp on the hose from the elbow to the wastegate. How are those clamps supposed to work? I replaced it with a regular hose clamp that I had handy.

I was able to pull the hose off the stock elbow with the clamp still on. And reinstall on the adjustable boost elbow.
