Anyone got an extra Boost Elbow?

As you can see from my sig, I need a boost elbow. Just wondering if anyone has one laying around.

Thanks,
Tim

No elbow, but does the Diablo puck have a boost fooler built into it?

If not, you'll overboost and defuel with the elbow.

If so, give Edge a call, they could probably send you an elbow, and try to sell you an EZ as well

http://www.edgeproducts.com/ should have a contact number on there somewhere.

Re:Anyone got an extra Boost Elbow?

Here is another option:
http://www.turbo-master.com/index.ph...amp;make=dodge
The turbo master will let you tune your boost output. You can call Bill Heath and talk with him directly. He can help with fine tuning your setup. He is also one of the advertisers on this site. Just do a search on turbo master and there is plenty of info to help make a decision.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck

Thanks for the info. I think I am selling the puck and going to a bigger box anyways. Maybe the box will come with one.

BLUTIC,
The Power Edge COMP does.
I am not sure of the others, but I assume they will.

The 2001-2002 trucks with automatic transmissions have what they call an HY35. It has a steel line for the waste got, not a rubber line. So a boost elbow will not work.

Hey tim why dont you just plug your wastegate. It wont hurt anything. And you'll get plenty of boost. Then just get a box with a boost fooler so you dont set the code.

Re:Anyone got an extra Boost Elbow?

Can I just crimp off that elbow and get more boost? the EZ does have the boost fooler then right irregardless of auto/manual ? how much performance gain from blocking that wastgate line?? Also does anyone know where/what I can tap into to hook up my boost guage? I have heard of those boost bolts but I dont want to wait for it to get here... any other "easy" sources? thanks

Rick

Re:Anyone got an extra Boost Elbow?

Slick Rick,I installed my boost sense line in the intake I think it was the third removable plug back from the front of the engine near the mapp sensor.You can get the reducers at the auto parts.To remove the plug you need a 1/2inch drive extenison and rachet,I hope this helps.

Re:Anyone got an extra Boost Elbow?

The plug that TE-44 is referring to is a pipe plug near your Map and IAT sensors on the drivers side near the rear end of the head.
This plug when removed gives direct access to the intake plenum.
