6758 turbo
Governor. ....... Gov..... Guv....... Guvna......
So are you saying that the Redbag Rooftop Bags will never be made, or just not made in your YG sweatshop? ;)
So it begins!
Borgwarner 6758 and FATZ airbox upgrade.
Got a flange made up for the intake to airbox rather then the rubber fitting.
Really wanting 4" right into the turbo but the alternator bracket needs a bit of work.
I'm not sure even trimming the bracket will fit, almost need a smaller belt, bring the alternator further in and create more room.
Trying to find good pics on the net of this style airbox and 4" running to turbo but no joy.
It'll be close but I think it'll squeeze in!

I think i have only seen high mount turbos with that box. .
The only time i think i saw it on a low mount was when it was mounted sort of where the 2nd battery is.
Theres enough room. 4" elbow pointing back towards firewall then down to turbo. Plenty around with that box and low mount.
Had a bit of a victory today in prepping everything.
Moved brake canister over a bit, shortened hoses ,raised that little junction box for the canister lines, managed to move airbox another 10mm into the guard which will allow a smoother 4" elbow into the turbo over the alternator.
I can now fit the airbox and battery tray in perfect without cutting up the tray.
Will start stripping the old turbo and lines next weekend and source fittings!
That's awesome mate! So you reckon the battery will fit alright? Hope you're taking lots of pics!
I've pulled it all back out now to fit turbo but Yep it all fits perfect.
Saved 10mm on airbox, 15mm on canister and another 20mm on cutting the canister lines shorter so the bend is straight away.
Raised the junction box up by 20mm with spacers to avoid front of battery tray.
I was lucky to have a decent hole on the inner guard from the original 4" snorkel elbow so the flange we made up sits actually inside the guard now.
I might even put a slight spacer on the airbox to slightly angle it so the elbow will be further away from the alternator.
That's awesome news mate, I was slightly worried haha. Does that bracket that comes off the airbox use the two Nissan bolts that are existing?
That's cool mate, cheers!
Eureka!!!!
The bolts on the turbo mounting studs were a nightmare!!
Good stuff mate.... I hope you get it ready in time!!!
I hate that fricking bolt.... it sucks balls.
Farkkk,
I shouldn't say this AB, however, may be if Bloodyaussie "sucks balls" maybe it could be easy-er fitting that rear bolt. lol

Holly shit AB,
When i quickly read your post, i thought to myself, you've bypassed Bloodyaussie's request to "sucks your balls" to help you fit the rear bolt too---"For what it's worth though I had to sacrifice Rosscos old ring" lol
Farkkkk me trendsetters, i have only been back a couple of days and from what i can see there appears to be a lot of farken ball sucking and ring sacrifices going on. lol.

How are you going with the airbox AB?
