Re:Boost and Injectors

So if I take my boost elbow off and just put a pipe plug in place of it what should I see for boost see sig. Also you said it should not hurt anything.

Re:Boost and Injectors

i'm guessing those injectors are similar to an RV injector. You should around mid 30's on boost. Which you wont have a problem with. And if you dont like it, just put your boost elbow on. It only takes a few minutes to change.

Re:Boost and Injectors

Jimmy,
The boost elbows come with Edge Comps or TST boxes.
Most fueling boxes come with one.
You can run one with your Piers 40, like I do.
The wastegate on my 40 started to open prematurely.
I cured that with the elbow.

But, watch out for too much boost.

Rammin N Cummin,
If you put a plug in it, you will see more boost.
But like Justin said earlier, you will create back pressure and possibly overspeed your turbo.
The back pressure will also act an exhaust brake and hurt your top end power.
