Re:boost elbow

The boost elbow is actually a metering device that installs in the wastegate. It tricks the wastegate into thinking that there is less boost being produced than there actually is. Thus, you see more boost.

Re:boost elbow

If you order a fuel plate kit the boost elbow will come with the kit...it will allow your boost to go to about 28-30 instead of stock 18-19 psi

Re:boost elbow

If you leave the fueling at the stock level, the only benefit you will see is an increase in turbo noise. Fuel+Air=Power. If you increase the fuel above stock, you will see an increase in power.
