Power Elbow or Mega Mouth?

Since I joined this site I've wanted to have a Mega Mouth w/down-pipe combo in a 4" dia. feeding my stacks... but with the shipping time due to customs BS, I'm wondering if its worth the wait b/c I have yet to order one. I'd really like to get my exhuast completely done before the first snow flies.

Would the Banks Power Elbow help cool enough to justify the price or just wait for the Mega Mouth? It doesn't look near as big as the Mega Mouth. Anyone with experience on either set-up please chime in.

Well if you plan on adding more power down the road and outgrow the stock turbo either one of those will be a waste as you won't be able to reuse them.

The way things are going now, it'll be a good couple of years before I can afford a worth while turbo upgrade...

If you are planning on upgrading your turbo in anyway in the future, skip them. There are better ways to get an EGT decrease that you aren't just going to throw away in the future.

Send your turbo to HTT for an upgrade and you might spend less and get better performance than the parts you're looking at =P
