i would just pull the plate....same thing and u get to save ur money.. the boost elbow lets less air go to the wastegate.... allowing for more boost before the wastegate opens.... just be easy on the trans....they dont like much more then stock power.

where may i find a guide to take off my plate, and if i pull it what do i put in its place? nothing?

just take the afc off and yank the plate....thats all.

you will notice a good difference....but once u get the 4k gsk and 60lb valve springs it will be a WHOLE new truck.

There's a sticky at the top of this section, I believe it tells you step by step how to remove the plate and everything, good luck :tu:

o and the 47rh hates power...so a tc and vb would be the next to save for.

I have seen the boost elbows and they appear to be nothin more than a brass elbow. Is this correct or is it a modified brass piece??Thanks for the help.

its a brass elbo with a set screw and a small hole in the elbow. the set screw is set to let a certain amount of air to leak through the hole and fool the wastegate on your turbo, THUS alowing the turbo to produce more boost before the wastegate can catch on PSI in its reference hose.
