This is a totally re-engineered (new casting) replacement elbow that flows more air and has the fit and finish of a stock piece.
Gains of 20-40HP are possible depending on your boost level and TB combination.
This elbow uses a stock bolt pattern so 60MM, 65MM, 66MM, 67MM, 72MM, or Monoblade throttle bodies will also bolt right on.
Our elbow has a high flow Q-port shape that moves the most amount of air with with the least amount of modification to the blower inlet:
With all the dyno testing we have done with GT500s and TVSs, modifying the inlet elbow was a no-brainer, as it was the next restriction in the system after the throttle body. Testing that we did years ago showed no power difference between 65, 66, 67, and monoblade throttle bodies, indicating the restriction lay elsewhere.
Our elbow has been optimized in CFD (computational fluid dynamics) to optimize the turn and airflow into the blower, by keeping airflow laminar and normalizing airspeed throughout the elbow.
The innovative Q-port design of our elbow will only require a small amount of material removal around the port.
Opening up the tiny oval hole in the stock and tvs blowers is essential to getting more air into the blower and making maximum power, it would be nice if we could skip this step, but it is required to see more than just a few HP gain. Most people can do this at home if they take their time and use a dremel with a good bit or a carbide burr from harbor freight. A file will even work if you are very patient.
In addition to power gains from a less restricted blower, we also saw a decrease in blower discharge temps (as measure before the IC with a K type thermocouple probe), this is great for road racers that want to reduce heat buildup out on the course, or aggressive street drivers.
