    What is the elbow mod?

    How is it done?

    How is it related to the better-known 'deckplate mod'?

    Can it be done in addition to the deckplate mod?

    Should it be done instead of the deckplate mod?

    i've done both deckplate and elbow and i haven't seen a problem with either of them(no loss in performance nor gas mileage).
