Divided Manifold Design
BD Diesel has introduced a new fully-di-
vided pulse manifold design for 2003-
Dodge 5.9L diesel engines which replaces
the stock manifolds with T4 turbochargers
for those wanting to upgrade to the S
or S400 units. The turbocharger stays in the
same stock location with a T4 mount and
is great for stock and performance installa-
tions. It is predrilled for pyrometer probes
with high ductile iron to withstand extreme
temperatures and vibration and prevent
cracking or exhaust leaks. It has a quicker
turbo start-up with reduced back pressure,
providing you with a smoother ride.

EFILive Will Soon Support Cummins HD Tuning
You asked for it and EFILive delivered! Cummins fans have long awaited
the time when EFILive would support tuning for their beloved trucks.
Even as recently as last December’s PRI Expo, we went to a seminar they
put on and people were clamoring for it. At the time, they had nothing to
announce, but EFILive has now announced that beta testing has begun for
“approximately 20 different engines used in 2010-2017 based vehicles” across
two categories: on-highway and off-highway. On-highway will cover big rig,
heavy duty, medium duty, light commercial and bus and RV applications,
while off-highway will cover agriculture, construction, fire and emergency,
marine, mining, power generation and rail applications. Three controllers,
the CM2350A, CM2250, and CM2220, are supported in the beta phase.
“A range of vehicles have already been tuned in our first phase of test-
ing. Our comprehensive beta testing program is now scheduled to expand
to continue and refine support across this vast selection of vehicles.
“The available tuning parameters compare to EFILive’s existing
late-model Cummins support including control over injection events, tur-
bo and RPM parameters. EFILive’s CSP switchable tuning support is also
in development for on-highway applications.    Additional Cummins HD
controllers are presently under consideration for future support.
“EFILive has developed unique hardware for the Cummins HD mar-
ket. FlashScan HD and AutoCal HD will be added to the EFILive suite of
products upon public release. HD products are easily identifiable by the
red case and custom label. Cummins HD support will only be available
on FlashScan HD and AutoCal HD hardware given vehicle connection
cables and communications protocols are unique to this market.”

“I just really liked the sound of anything that Magna Flow’s ever made, and I was happy that we spent a little extra money to do

that because it doesn’t sound like any other Dodge you’ve ever heard.” – Page 30
