question about greddy elbow...

Hi all,
I was wondering, since I am still kind of a newbie, what the reason for running injectors into the greddy elbow was for?
Also, what else is routed off the greddy elbow, besides the intercooler piping haha ?? I think I saw a picture of a BOV off of it??? I'm not sure..
Thanks
Edwin

additional injectors are used if you need more fuel.

Nothing else is routed off the elbow, you do have to plug the hose that is on the stock elbow.

It doesn't come with a bov flange but i'm sure one can be added

Beware of the elbows that have BOV flanges welded on them. At least really check the weld. I had one from the Rx7store on here that had a crack around the weld area. It was welded to thin on one side and then ground down too smooth and it broke thru. It probably just slipped thru the quality control but if anyone puts one on and then has boost issues, Check and make sure there is no crack.

Again, I think this was a fluke and the store has since replaced it with another minus the BOV flange.( At my request)The Rx7store is very good about doing the rite thing. All I had to do was ask. So I am not bashing on them.
