Banks Power Elbow fit other than stock turbo?
I've been looking into a turbo and injectors and cant find if my current Banks power elbow will fit anything else. I will try to reuse it not to waste the money and its incl. 4" downpipe. I assume it'd fit the gtp38r since it looks very similar to stock?
Maybe I shouldn't worry about it and get the "modded" H2e? If so who's is best? I am needing to take the time to see if I indeed have pmr's but I'm assuming I do and want to take the power up to reasonably safe (400ish?) levels.

Thanks for the power elbow info, it was probably a waste of money as the 38r just seems too easy or too stock for some reason. Is the h2e kit fully bolt on or fabrication required? Who's is best? I might have seen someone has a optional wastegated h2e kit, if i set it at 40 psi could I skip head studs for now? Quick spooling(for a manual trans.) and egt reduction both possible?
My goal is a few horse short of catastrophic engine failure. If I'd get off the internet and see if I indeed have pmr's it sounds like 400 hp or so since I won't be updating to forged rods unless I blow the motor. If I luck out and have factory forged rods, how many horsepower is "safe" then?
too many questions, too little patience...sorry for long post

H2e or 38R
238/100 hybrids
Studs
910 Valve springs...
Good tuning.

Damn, studs and springs too. Hadn't planned on those. I was thinking the injector swap might be all I wanted to get into myself. I'm guessing valvesprings arent a simple remove and replace kind of deal Am I right the heads have to come off to get certain studs in place for clearance reasons?

So I can do the studs one at a time and keep the factory head gasket? Its only got 31000 mi. on it. Torque sequence work like that?
And the valves don't fall in the cylinder if I figure out where tdc is correctly?
I've checked a little and havent found any writeups here on the DIY studs and springs, does anyone know of one?
How much would you back off that recipe if I didn't do studs and springs? Probably dumb not to while the valve covers are off but just wondered.

You could skip springs before I would skip studs.
