A flow redirection conduit is disposed downstream of the inlet condult and is coupled to the end of the housing. A plurality (of protrusions project from a sidewall of the flow redirection conduit towards an inlet face of the aflertreatment ‘component and are configured to provide a uniform exhaust gas flow to the inlet face. Alternatively, a flow distrioution plate having a plurality of slots defined substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis is disposed in the flow redirection conduit, the plate being inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis. The slots are configured to provide a uniform exhaust gas flow to the inet face. I » 2 49 - BH - | eet : 5 % oR FIG. 1 ‘This international application has entered the national phase gary V e©9866S¢ dD
