The highest flowing Nissan ZD30 turbo inlet elbow on the market. Unlike fabricated components, there are no limits as to what can be designed and accounted for when producing quality cast products.
Our custom designed, cast metal turbocharger air inlet elbow will suit ZD30 Di and CRD engines fitted with the factory Garrett GT2052V turbocharger, as well as High-flows and upgraded Turbochargers utilising a factory housing. Ideally suited to larger upgraded turbochargers with machined or ported compressor housings, this inlet elbow will also fit a completely standard turbocharger and still provide a large increase in airflow to the compressor. The path of airflow directly before the compressor wheel is the most critical point in a turbocharged application, and this elbow is designed to maximise it.
🚗 Suitable for:
- Nissan Patrol GU/Y61 ZD30 Di and CRD 3.0L Diesel 2001-2016 – fitted with Garrett GT2052V turbocharger
📦 What’s Included:
- 1x cast metal ZD30 turbocharger air inlet elbow
🛠️ Fitment Details:
- High-flow 3 inch inlet for less restriction
- 60mm outlet diameter at the compressor flange – 28% larger than the factory turbo inlet size of 47mm
- Large diameter bend with the longest possible radius for optimal airflow into the turbo compressor housing
- Suits OEM/factory alternators – aftermarket alternators can have clearance issues, please check before ordering
- We recommend 3″ intake pipework be used with this product to achieve peak flow and efficiency. Fabwitz also makes a range of snorkels, airboxes and intake pipework kits that pair perfectly with this upgrade
⚙️ Why Choose This:
- Cast, not fabricated – no design limitations means better flow characteristics than fabricated alternatives
- Reduces restriction on the intake side of the turbo, which lowers load on the thrust bearing and increases turbo longevity
- Especially beneficial on higher boost, higher power applications where premature turbo wear is a risk
- Proven design used across the ZD30 upgrade community

❓ FAQs:
Q: Will this fit a completely standard turbocharger?
A: Yes. Even on a standard GT2052V turbo this elbow provides a large increase in airflow to the compressor.
Q: Will this work with an aftermarket alternator?
A: It’s designed around OEM/factory alternators. Aftermarket alternators can have clearance issues, so check compatibility before fitting.
Q: What size intake pipework should I run with this?
A: We recommend 3″ intake pipework to achieve peak flow and efficiency.
Q: Why does turbo intake sizing matter?
A: Restriction on the air intake side can cause overspeed and premature thrust bearing failure. Sufficient pre-turbo sizing improves both performance and turbo longevity, particularly under higher boost.
