I run a 150 shot on my rubber elbow with no problems what so ever.

Actually, the rubber elbow is probably better. You'll need to secure the nozzle in the elbow with a proper mount in either case. Some metal elbows have a "divider" down the middle which can affect N2O distribution on a Wet System. Plus, I've done a thermo check on the surface temps of rubber and metal elbows... the metal has greater heat soak absorbing the underhood temps.
