diesel power source exhaust manifold?
Piece Exhaust Manifold 12V Cummins
has anyone here run one of these or heard any good or bad about them? there bout 100 cheaper then all the rest. |
im using 1.. got it from kt performance, he is a sponsor here.. i got mine for a very nice price, he'll work with ya u gotta buy the bolts for it locally tho
|
looks like a good one
|
Good find :tu:
|
What is there to gain by going with an aftermarket exhaust manifold?
|
money mula denero coin and every other word for money :w2:
|
So nothing performance wise?
|
faster spool up, maybe a slight decrease in egts. but my dads is warped and wanting a new one instead of a used one
|
Oh you cant beat faster-spoolup hehe
|
I think the big thing is the fact that since they're 3-piece, they're less prone to warping and cracking under heat cycles. A lot of the big turbo makers also recommend them when upgrading turbos.
|
i would say aint worh spending money on unless you need a new one or got extra cash laying around
|
not true , the after market manifold will decrease back pressure , makes the engine breathe and run better, decreases the chance of blowing a head gasket , spools the turbo faster and lowers the egt's , and has been known to increase fuel mileage in most cases. the fact that it Increases Air Flow and decreases Boost pressure is a win win situation. often times performance bombs do not increase the longevity of your engine ... in this case it does.
after market intake and exhaust manifolds is a key integral to the proper safe bombing of your diesel. |
the manifold is warped. the guy who had the truck before us pulled 26k all the time running hot shot. he drove it hard, and put it up hot, caused it to warp. suprised it aint cracked
|
i replaced mine because it was shrinking bad pulling on the bolts. ive only had it on for about 300 miles but it seems to be working nice. i would recommend it
|
got any pics of it on your truck?
|
no i just pulled the head off my truck tonite too.. all i got is a couple pix of it on the head thats layin on my garage floor lol, he said it would rust but it hasnt yet... been on for like 3 weeks and not even started 2 rust :tu:
|
i just put mine on 2 days ago with my phatshaft turbo. seems like a good unit but have only put about 100 miles on it so far. i noticed zero performance out of it, but thats just a judging by the seat of the pants thing. definitely seems nicer than the factory manifold though
|
Just put mine on this afternoon didn't really see any performance change at all but when easing into it on the interstate building speed it did cool egt's by about 150* which is way awesome. And it looks pretty sick under the hood also. I put 2 or 3 coats of the black exhaust manifold paint on mine ran it to about 1700* for 2 seconds baked paint on looks slick. Lol only got about 12 miles on it but gonna drive about 4oo miles tomoro so i'll find out if it helps mileage
|
let us know how you like it on the big trip

Biged681985, not sure if you went with the DPS exhaust manifold or not, but if you still need one or something else drop me a pm. I have a close relationship with DPS and can get you a great deal! By the way, I have been to their factory and seen the parts being manufactured. Despite, what the untrue rumors started by their competitors say, they are great products and are made in America.

i had got one and wasnt sattisfied. im sure it was a mistake, but the 5 weeks to get the money back was a waste of time. the manifold was not mahined. the ports were half the size of what they were supposed to be. they said they would send me another, but i had already got a different stock manifold and put it on and just wanted my money back
