Product Description
The ATS 204-943-2218 Pulse Flow Exhaust Manifold Kit is a premium upgrade for 1998.5-2002 5.9L 24V Cummins applications running a T4 turbo setup. ATS markets its Pulse Flow series as a higher-flow design with increased internal diameter in critical areas to reduce backpressure and help exhaust gases drive the turbo more efficiently. This 3-piece manifold design is also built to better manage heat expansion than a stock-style one-piece manifold, helping reduce the cracking issues commonly associated with factory exhaust manifolds.
Built for performance, towing, and street-driven diesel trucks, this kit includes the 3-piece T4 manifold along with gaskets and turbo hardware for a more complete installation package. It is an excellent choice for Cummins owners upgrading to a T4-based turbo system or replacing a restrictive factory manifold with a more durable and higher-flow alternative.
Since ATS introduced its first Pulse Flow manifold in the mid-1990s, the product line has remained one of the brand’s best-known exhaust upgrades for Cummins performance builds. This manifold kit is designed to improve exhaust flow, support quicker turbo response, and provide the durability needed for demanding towing and high-performance use.
