TST boost elbow question

I just added a mad ecm on top of my comp and now I can hit about 44psi of boost. I know that this is way too much for the hx 35 to handle. Right now I am running the boost elbow that came with the comp. My question is, I know that the elbow from TST has an allen head screw in it. Does this mean that it is adjustable and if so is it as simple and either turning it ina nd out??

Thanks for the help!

The 40+ is on 5X5, but what fun is backing the comp off if I can get an adjustable elbow so I can use all the power I have.

The elbow is adjustable. All the way in will give you that 42-44lbs. Only a slight turn will make a noticeable difference.

The reason that I asked the question is because I had an elbow from edge with my comp and it was giving me 44 psi. I wanted and adjustable elbow to bring it down some because I know that it is just hot air and also about the detination stage of the hx 35. Also the elbow is a whole lot cheaper alternative!

thanks for the info
