[?] '18 Intake Manifold on '15-'17

[MaskedRacerX]

Is the GT350 throttle body a direct fit for the 18 manifold or will I need to use the adapter for the 15-17 GT manifold for the 350 throttle body to fit on the 18 manifold? Thank you all for your input!

The MY18 TB is the same as previous years, so you'll need to use an adapter for the GT350 TB.

Mine are locked out. Car feels better than it did with stock manifold and IMRC. No regrets and it cleans up the engine bay.

I bought the connectors from EODTech87. I ordered my tune from VMP stating that IMRC's are active. Still waiting on tune to get the intake on. I'm an auto car so don't want to lose low end torque.

Then you should stick with your F150 manifold.

hahaha, too late for that now! I'm going to get a custom tune some time later in the summer from Tony @ Tuners Inc. which is 10 minutes from my house. He just stays really busy! :first:

Do you happen to have any pictures of how to plug the vacuum lines that are no longer going to be used? Or I think the nipples on the front of the intake need to be plugged? I’m not sure but I’m gonna go ahead and lock mine out too

Yea I’d love some pics of what’s blcoked off to run them locked out. Going to borrow my buddies 18 intake from his 14 that’s locked out and going to install and tune with my hp tuners vcm for lack of imrc and would just like it for reference.

Painted the runners black with 1200 degree paint from Home Depot. Looks alot cleaner.

Think I figured it out my 17 has less vacuum lines then 16/15

All done, and shes running great. No CEL's no issues so far other than the fact that its too wet out to see what shes gained. Around town and cruising around she feels no different than before so Im happy as can be. Will report back if anything pops up over the next couple miles.

Got my 18 IM installed and my Lund tune installed . Runs good . I drove it about 20 miles pulled over into a parking lot and then check engine light came on . Code is 2006 Intake manifold Runner control Stuck Closed. Any ideas.

 

[66sprint6]

I only went 5 miles or so. Ill report back if I get a CEL when Im out later. Send the info to Lund and see where it goes.

Got mine on the car today, vac hoses look a little janky but I'm going to go buy some 90 deg fittings and get rid of some of the looping hoses next week.
