You can buy the Greddy elbow by itself: http://turboimport.com/catalog/rx7.htm

Please at least look at the forum vendors before creating new threads like this.

The second part of my post was to find out if there was a generic alternative.

HKS has also one... Don't know if it's still being produced. You see it once in a while

Has anyone done testing on the different types of elbows? Do they really flow that much better than stock to increase HP? I hope to get a Peter Farrell SMIC soon and it is designed to fit to the stock elbow. If I keep the greddy it will be one more coupler then if I use the stock.

Exact same situation, I just bought the PFS intercooler and I am about to sell the elbow, but I'd be willing to try and make it work if there was some sort of proof it increase HP. I don't see how it could make a difference though?

Stock item is plastic, aftermarket alloy... I think it's about thesame story as any other plastic under bonnet part on the rotary engine. It might crack if you up the boost. That's my best guess

so i did find another ecommerce company that sells FEED elbow.. but for the price... i'd just go with a greddy

http://www.neweraparts.com/Default.a...&ProductID=180

and $338 for just the elbow only
http://www.neweraparts.com/Default.a...&ProductID=178


i'm just linking this site for my own reference as well.. =P but honestly... www.fdnewbie.com will still get you better pricing

I just came across this elbow is weekend. Banzai Racing has a costumer with it on his car. I wish I could find one of these to put on my car. Its a HKS and its the same as the stock but made of aluminum. If anyone was one for sale let me know.
