THE Greddy elbo has 2 injector bungs, or comes with out any. Most think this is not a good place to put injectors. Garfinkles elbo had the bungs,one bung was cut off and a blow off valve is there, the other now holds the air temp sensor.I would get the elbo with out the bungs , Gar could not pick one or the other back then but it worked out.

TTB, which part of the piping are you going to replace? With the greddy hardpipe kit you can replace all the rubber pipes. I used to have it, it replaced the elbow and the IC piping as well. There are two versions you can get: The elbow that has feed for additional injectors, or just a normal elbow. It does not however replace the Y-pipe from the turbo to the intercooler, you will have to buy that separately.

Well, I had a friedn with a greddy rebic additional injector controller and he had 2 550's put in that greddy elbow, so i guess if you want to tune fuel then it would be a nice thing to have. Also the stock plastic intercooler pipes are known to break, the hardpipe kit won't break plus it just looks cool
