Default Boost elbow delete.

I got a boost elbow on my HX,I'd like to put a regular elbow back on it,I don't think the elbow is doing anything other than raising the drive pressure,my truck ain't hot enough to need the thing,and when it is I'm thinking I need to just get a different turbo.
Anyone know what the thread is where it goes into the turbo?
