I’m going to upgrade my 2015 gt intake manifold to 2018 intake manifold ported but I’m wondering does that require me to change the gaskets? Knowing that my milage is 70k+ km

gaskets? who needs em. LOL. they are silicon rubber if I remember correctly, can be reused if your careful (if intake has been used) if your buying a new ported one, you'll get whatcha need. At your mileage, expect a mess on the IMRC's, be ready for some serious cleaning. Lots of people lock them out with an extra kit, like an MMR, keeps them open permanently.

I heard once you take off intake manifold off, best off to change all gaskets and get a new one

The new manifold should come with rubber gaskets on it. You shouldn't have to take off the ones on your old one.

I tried telling him that. And I'm not even sure (someone else come in if I'm wrong) the rubberized gaskets on a '15 intake fit on an '18 and up intake.
