I recently picked up a Juice with Attitude 2nd hand. It came with everyting except the boost elbow. Not too sure what the elbow is supposed to do. I understand it is an orifice, but in a closed system that will only slow down flow, not limit pressure. I was figuring the concept was to keep the waste gate closed, allowing the boost pressure to rise. I was wondering if I could substitute a J-hook (local fab) for a boost elbow, or should I get a new part from Edge? If a J-Hook is adequate, why not remove the OEM elbow and plug the port in the compressor housing and the hose running to the actuator?Appreciate your time,Joe in St Louis

I found out tonight I need to do something soon. Got stuck in my yard and EGTs hit 1500 more than once. I must be webtarded cause I can't seem to find what the numbers for a turbo mean, like the 62/x/x. I have no clue what they mean.

Compressor/Inducer/exhaust so like 62mm compressor wheel, 68mm inducer and 12cm exhaust housing for a 62/68/12 Compressor for the air flow (reduce EGT and fueling/power) inducer/exhaust for amount of drive pressure and exhaust flow and spool up effect. But they kinda all work together - I really like the 9cm housings for spoolup and never really saw large EGT drops for larger ones :)
