Default Boost elbow advice

I'm looking at getting an adjustable boost elbow. I just want to know your guy's thoughts on this, is it a good idea? Any other ideas?
Thanks!

Boost = Good

35lb is the max safe pressure for a stock turbo. Stay under that and you'll be fine.

FWIW, I have an old non-adjustable elbow on my truck and it gives me 35psi. In fact, before I checked the boost and not sure what the PO put on my truck, I ordered a TST adjustable elbow but then had no need to change it. It's on the shelf, never opened the package. Wanna buy it?
