I've been reading this thread for about an hour, and I'm seriously thinking of putting an F150 intake manifold on my '16 GT.

Where's the best place to get one?

Still waiting to see an 18+ mustang w/ 18+ f150 manifold. Curious if it can hang on until 6500+ or it drops off sooner like the 15-17 f150.
that would be a great equalizer.

Just installed mine after having it laying around, car pulls harder between idle n 6200rpm. Cars just a daily so most action is stop sign to stop sign so it's good enough for me. Only question is, is it ok to leave them hanging? Or should I zip tie em to the fuel line?

Yes. I would zip tie them to make it look cleaner.

Would I zip tie them with or without the foam part? That goes between the coolant hoes and fuel rail
With the foam. Coolant hoses get a little warm. You don't want your fuel rails getting too hot.

I've got a 12 F150 and a 17 Mustang GT.

Honestly the truck feels faster although it is a lot slower. It will run 14.2 at 97 the stang runs 12.9 at 115.

I'm seriously thinking on swapping an 18 F150 manni on it, just for the around town boost in torque. I have no evidence but I believe the 18 manifold will allow more RPM.

From the VMP video, the 17 truck manifold and stock gt both fall off after 6500, so no reason not to swap?

Does someone have a stock gt manifold dyno trace? I think it sucks VMP did not show that trace.​

An E85 tune is much better mod. The truck manifold will just make it slower. E85 will make it more lively, torquey around town and do it consistently. And you still have the high rpm power and your car is faster.

The packaging doesn't allow for a normally vented one piece rotor without a weird hub interface (and extra weight).

E85 is 15 miles away.

What I'm seeing, through VMP's video and dyno traces, is both the 17 GT manni and the 17 truck mani fall off sharply at 6500 RPM. The truck mani makes a ton more down low power and the same above 5000.

How can this be slower? Unless the graphs are wrong the truck manifold should out run the GT manifold.

I'm still looking for an 18 truck manifold. I would do before and after 1/4 mile runs.

Because you only use that extra torque in one gear, and briefly. The GT manifold makes more power above 6000.

Still with this lol. Amazes me how many of you's think using this manifold will make you faster. It won't. End of story.
