Divided manifolds keep the exhaust pulses from each rotor separate and direct them through two independent scrolls in the turbine housing. Undivided manifolds merge all the exhaust pulses into one stream.

Divided manifolds offer better turbo response because the exhaust pulses do not work to cancel each other out.
