now whats the whole reason behind a aftermarket exhaust manifold im a fabricator so i will just make one myself to save that money. i know that you want the exhaust to flow threw but do you want to make it all equal lenght or once again just so it flows smooth.

The reason is for less restriction between the head and the turbo. Unlike a headder for a gas job, a headder for a diesel isn't the answer, not in my opinion. There is a lot of heat loss due to more pipe and surface area. Heat is energy, energy is power.

The reason for a exhaust manifold is the help get restriction out of the exhaust flow and the engin. The factory exhaust manifolds are extemely restrictive... So by going with a aftermarket manifold we can drop egts and also help with turbo spool up and reduce back pressure in the engine

also a header holds more air which means it would take longer to spool up. to dodge bomber if you look at some of the ATS exhaust manifolds that is the idea. if you can fabricate headers you can fabricate a cummins exhaust manifold and Zane just because you don't have the skills to do it doesn't mean someone else doesn't

The aftermarket manifolds also have expansion joints which helps keep them from breaking when they expand and contract.
