^That's basically why I chose to go with all Ford manufactured parts. Fit and finish of OEM cant be had with aftermarket companies.

What injectors does the ‘18 run? If going with an FF E85 tune as well at least 47lb injectors are needed?

I'm currently using 47lb Ford Performance injectors because you will be maxing out the injectors revving to 8k RPM's on e85.

I was wondering if they upgraded the injectors on the ‘18 or are they still the same.

18+ has two sets of injectors since they have both port and direct injection. I think the port injectors (if that's what they're called) are the same as 11-17.

Anyone using 15-17 stock airbox and 18 IM?

Trying to decide if I want to go with the intake manifold change while my stock one is off and my engine is being repaired. I'm already in deep with cash and am trying to stay relatively budget friendly.

I've got a GT350 OEM cold air intake with an Airaid filter. I used a 3 inch coupler to slide in between the stock throttle body and GT350 intake elbow. It definitely helps having an intake. However my word of advice, if you are looking to upgrade, go with a cold air intake that requires a tune (bigger MAF housing). You will see the most benefit. If not, then stick with the stock airbox. It flows pretty efficiently.

I just picked up a gt350 cai cheap and placed an order for the 18 manifold and MMR lockouts.

My car is gonna be completely different after adding TSP headers, going back to the gt350 cai and adding the 18 manifold.

You'll like it a lot! Do a big mouth for the grille while you're doing the work. Helps IATs.

That's the same setup I have plus 47lb injectors and it rolls out strong on 93. I'm going to be switching to e85 today.

Same here except stock headers. I'm hardware-ready for Flex/E85, but have been on 93 with my AED tune and very happy.

Anybody upgrade their OPG's (oil pump gears) with the 18' manifold setup?

I know they're prone to breaking when introducing more RPM's due to the vibration and harmonics.
