Your never going to be able to know how much your truck has without putting it on a set of rollers. There are too many variables in the world to just say this is what i have and how much power am i making. Depends on to many things...tuning is a big thing! A truck with the same setup with a poorly tuned afc and then swap to the same truck with a good tuned afc and there is gonna be a night and day difference. Just my .02

Yes a boost elbow will increase boost however to far and your asking for trouble.
