GT350 Intake Manifold = Plug and Play?

[Shifting_Gears]

I was doing some random thread reading and saw a post regarding the GT350 intake vs the 18+ intake.

It was noted that no tune is required for the GT350 intake because they use the same IMRC setup and connections, and the rest of the hose routing is basically the same.

Is this true?! The intake itself it’s more expensive, but that gap quickly narrows when talking about HAVING to tune the car and IMRC lockouts versus tuning to get the full benefit of the intake manifold.

As long as you use your current throttle body, this requires an adapter, the manifold will bolt on and run just like stock. No codes or any drivability problems.

That said you will need a tune to get most of the gains the manifold can deliver.

2015-2017 only with the OEM installed 80mm TB and factory airbox is PNP.
3 years of daily driving on my setup with zero DTC's and awesome MPG (80mm AFR Bret Barber 5 Axis Modded TB) Last interstate trip, 27.5 MPG @ 75ish mph on 3.73:1 gears and MT-82. Around town (congested urban streets, 18-21 mpg)
The PMAS No-Tune CAI system will also work with the 80mm TB.
I do miss out on the extend RPM range and cam timing but I manage for now until I decide to switch to Soler's TB.

I have a Diablosport Trinity II EX and I can adjust cam timing / spark timing / max rpm / fuel trims / MAF diameter / gear ratio / tire diameter / fan tune on~off / and a bunch of other things.

What about TB tables when moving into the 87mm or Soler TB’s ?

No clue.
