Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1045995-T4 20-Degree T4 Exhaust Manifold is a heavy-duty performance replacement manifold for 1998.5–2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 5.9L Cummins trucks designed for use with T4 turbochargers. If you're upgrading from a stock turbo to a larger T4-frame unit while keeping the turbo in the factory location, this manifold is built to support higher airflow, improved spool response, and long-term durability.
This fully divided pulse manifold is cast from high-silicon ductile iron to withstand extreme exhaust temperatures and vibration. The multi-piece design with expansion joints allows controlled movement as the manifold heats and cools, helping prevent cracking, warping, and gasket failures that are common with one-piece manifolds. The optimized 20-degree T4 flange angle improves turbocharger positioning for common performance turbo configurations while maintaining fitment in the engine bay.
