Hi folks
If anyone is installing or has installed a gt350im on a RHD car please can you post here. I have installed a used one I bought off Gibbo on my 2017 car and have had some very odd issues when using the vacuum routing that Gibbo used and that ford details in the instructions.
1. The car runs lean at warm idle so needed to run an artificially rich map.
2. The brakes became massively over sensitive. Either off or emergency stop strong.
3. Because of point 1 my tuner was convinced there was a vacuum leak. There wasn’t.
However I think I’ve worked it out. I believe 2017 rhd cars run a different brake servo. By using a different vacuum line routing I have fixed the above issues.
I would love to speak to others running this manifold on rhd to see if there is a pattern or to figure out if my car is just weird.
