its a little brass elbow near the fire wall on top of your injection pump with a line off it going to the turbo. my new boost elbow came with my fuel plate kit.

for the price it cant hurt the one i have isnt adjustible and i got more boost when i put it on. theres a lot of mods you can do to the 12v for cheep or free like grinding the fuel plate and adjusting the star wheel in the afc housing (see pic above) and check out the 12v bombs section also there are kits for performance plates that include a boost elbow on ebay for a decent price if you didnt want to grind the plate.

wow i must have put mine in the wrong spot with my stocker.. cause mines right in the front of my turbo. i just took the waist gate line off of the front housing, took off the fitting that it goes to, then i just put the boost elbow in its place and put the line back on. just let me know if u need a pic of it
