Do not use an elbow, if you do a fast style will run circles around it...

No one I have ever met, heard of or seen likes an elbow. They **** up the incoming air, distrobution gets all screwy.

As for cold air, not a problem if you make a pan to draw from the cowl area.. Even drawing ambient air, it runs circles around the elbow....

with a vic jr. not much, with a supervic with a spacer like mine you have to cut the cowl... You could probly get away with trimming the plastic and a slight notch of the cowl sheetmetal.

Per most threads on here, if you take off an elbow and replace it with a 4150 TB, you will net 50hp -/+! This seems to be the average across the board.

Elbows are great for FI, but fur N/A.... NO!

And believe me... this sucks! I found a twin elbow with the TB opposing each other... talk about SICK...! I couldn't wait to run it on my setup, but after I heard about the elbow issues, I was pissed! I will take form over function only so far, so I guess my line in the sand is at 50hp or so.

Vic jr W/ elbow set up is NOT good for the street or NA set up. FAST or plastic set up get my vote.
