ATS Aurora Plus Compound Turbo System (2013-2018 6.7L Cummins)

Fitment

Listed for 2013-2018 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups with the 6.7L Cummins. ATS built it for 2013-up Ram pickups and designed it so the factory emissions equipment stays in use. This is a 2013-2018 kit only. The 2010-2012 trucks run the Holset HE351VE turbo and the 2013-2018 trucks run the HE300VG, and turbo parts for the two are not interchangeable. Ram 3500/4500/5500 chassis cabs often use different turbo and intake parts than the pickups, so this listing does not cover them. Verify fitment by VIN or call us, and see our Cummins page for more parts for your engine.

Why this part

Compound turbocharging runs two turbos in series. The piece that makes this kit work on the 6.7L is the ATS Vortex manifold. ATS describes it as uniquely engineered to give smooth charge air and exhaust transfer while staying compact, which keeps the installation simple. The payoff ATS lists is lower EGT and an increase in horsepower and torque, with the system capable of 750 and up rear wheel horsepower.

For a truck that pulls a trailer, the factory exhaust brake matters, and this kit retains it. ATS also says the kit works with the factory emissions equipment on. Keeping that equipment in place is not the same thing as a CARB Executive Order, so if your state requires one for turbo changes, call us before you order.

Once it is installed, the habits that keep a 6.7L turbo system healthy still apply: fresh air filters, oil changes to spec, routine use of the exhaust brake and letting the truck idle before shutdown. Browse other options on our turbo page.

About ATS Diesel Performance

ATS Diesel Performance was founded in 1993 and works out of Arvada, Colorado. Transmission packages and torque converters are the core of the line, but ATS also builds Aurora turbochargers, exhaust manifolds and Aurora Plus compound turbo systems for the 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins.

Frequently asked questions

Will I keep my exhaust brake?

Yes. ATS says this kit retains the factory exhaust brake, so you keep it for towing and downhill grades.

Will it fit my 2010-2012 6.7L?

No. This kit is for 2013-2018 pickups. The 2010-2012 trucks use the HE351VE turbo and the 2013-2018 trucks use the HE300VG, and turbo parts for the two generations are not interchangeable. Call us and we will go over what fits your year.

Is everything I need in the box?

ATS sells it as a kit with all hardware included, and the Vortex manifold is designed for a simple installation. If you want it installed, we do that work in the shop.
