This is The best mustang channel on TH-cam. If you disagree, then your one of those people who enjoy the clickbait and all of the videos labeled " you won't believe how the cold air intake destroyed my car!!! " Or " my car just made MASSIVE power by installing one simple mod!"
This video is a perfect example of why this is the best Mustang related channel on YT - actual useful information backed by science (or pretty close to science). The other channels are mostly fanboy feel-good - "we're gonna test my new exhaust/ splitter/hood vent/grill," etc nonsense. BTW - you left the hood open on the GT350 run :)
@@Jimbo-SliceGJL Thank you for confirming that by upgrading my 16 IM to the 18IM was a shiet waste of money! In Canada including everything this upgrade cost me well over $1600CAD and my car feels like shiet on the street and even with PBD's tune, it shtill didn't help much! You're correct, the car doesn't pull as good in the low end and it's very noticeable....
Might not be "scientific" but your analysis on all things related to Mustangs are based in solid facts and sound reasoning. Thanks Alex, we continue to learn and profit from your channel. Keep it up young man!
I can't believe how similar the 18 and gt350 graphs are! Awesome video thanks for this info. I feel like many other have skewed info on the 18 vs 350 manifolds.
Thanks for taking the time to do this! My car is mostly a daily driver so I prefer the torque of the stock intake. I rarely go over 6k rpm. I feel better now not dropping the money for the GT350 instake.
Your best vid in my opinion thanks for the insight. Keeping my stock 15 manifold since it's my daily and I prefer low end torque. I rarely get above 5-6k rims on my daily commute but it is still fast and fun getting there
Great info and thanks for doing all that work. It’s nice to see the numbers with no BS. I’ve been on the fence for an 18 manifold, but I think I want to port it to make the biggest gain on my manual 17.
Great information and yes, you are correct, its paradise compared to my -5 yesterday morning. I'm over winter already. As a daily, I could see where the stock manifold would be the better choice, especially an auto. And for my money, the 350 isn't worth the cost.
Thanks Alex. great info. I always wondered why people change to the '18 manifold? I was amazed to discover the GT4 Mustangs have stock 2015 manifolds and a X plane Crank. They apparently make max power at like 5500 rpm and then rev on to 8000! This enables the driver to negotiate the twisty tech part of the track without having to change gear... your graphs show this well. But.. you have to wonder why they dont use the GT350 manifold???
Appreciate the work you put in for us Alex. This is literally the only Mustang channel I’m subbed to because you give me information I want without the bobbling head bullshit.
Nothing better than utilizing proven information to build a solid daily driven mustang. I have a Brent Barber manifold and 47 LBS injector but after educating myself on these bolt on, it doesn't really fit my particular purpose or needs. Solid content with no "ricer" bullshit...greatly appreciated, thanks
mustang is not good on low end torque in general, the ported 18 manifold only have slice torque loss which for myself I can not feel the different. But for the powerband and pull effect with the lund tune, it's something u can feel right away. No regret on the money spent, all the way to 8000rpm
I am running on the 18 manifold on my MT82 17 for about a year now. Lund tuned on E85 with FFE. i personally do not do a lot of dig racing, but when im in mexico i never start below 4500-5000. the 18 manifold is a must in my opinion just because i like the way the car doesn't die out up top anymore. good content as usual Alex. Thanks
BuT yOlO yOu DiDnT uSe ThE sToCk ThRoTtLe BoDy On ThE gt350! A ported 18 manifold makes more hp and is cheaper than the gt350. Thanks for taking the time to do all this, great test.
Thanks for the info. I’d like to see the BOSS intake compared to those as well since they are decently close in price. Been debating on injectors and a manifold to go with my Pmas and E85.
Nice video .. you should take the car to the track and see what each manifold would do in the 1/4 mile. Dyno numbers are nice to see but to see what the manifolds can actually do like at a track would be badass.
It’s all about your what the car the way your car will be used.. Me personally, I don’t race so I’m staying stock with a Pmas/Steeda CAI and Lund tune engage. With my borla atak exhaust.. that’s good fun right there around town..and back and forth to work.
Great analysis and dyno testing of intakes. One question would you gain anything buy porting the stock intake .We know torque is king on street driving. Thanks
Great video! Look forward to a throttle body video. Definitely keeping my stock intake. How big of a difference did the 18 air intake make over the 15-17 air intake? Worth to change?? I am opening up the vents on the grill and adding a velocity stack on it.
Alex also are you giving the imrc’s enough credit for the low end torque you lost on the last two manifolds since it was disabled? With them enabled won’t that close the gap between the 350 mani and the stock mani at lower Revs?
I have a pullied+tuned Roushcharged 5.0 but these n/a coyote builds are no slouch. I make around 650 wheel with a 3.31 on a 20" wheel. But these 500whp coyotes on a 3.73 do well up to around 110-120 before I pull away.
1st love the shirt & how can we get 1? 2nd most people probably won't agree but I personally really appreciate all the work u put in videos like this 1 just to give free info. Screw the haters & keep them coming
Yeah do the cj and boss manifolds. I have been wondering what they do in comparison to my 2018 manifold on my 2017 gt. Right now I have 580rwt and 806rwhp with the Paxton, 3.33 pulley and e85 at 15 psi
Alex, You must have fast fingers to get both manifolds swapped out and dyno tested in the same day! Unless you filmed it over a two day period, you must be able to do it in your sleep! Thanks for the great information and sharing your knowledge. 👍
Nice test Alex. I see the power gains in certain rev ranges, but I have to ask why do you think neither the 18 or the 350 made any better peak power? 385 wheel with e85 and a manifold seems low based on what others seem to have found. Thanks
Stock exhaust with cats along with the stock cold air choke the intake manifolds and they can't "breathe" as much as they would be able to if he had a free flowing exhaust and a PMAS.
Thats fine if you're ok with having the slowest at the track. Those other manifolds will spank the stock intake in a drag race or roll race it may not matter to you some dont care about modding their car to go faster and that is fine but if youre trying to be faster na a manifold swap IS A MUST...it will make the car significantly faster at wot redlining to the new redline of 7500-8k and with the aggressive gearing these cars have and some good tuning you prob wouldnt even barely notice the torque loss...the cj i dont even think loses torque neither does l&m intake only cams (which is the setup i wanna do) but those two together will gain 50+ whp over even an 18 manifold even larger gains over a stock 11-17 car. People worry too much about that torque at 3-4k....when the power gain up top has a much more significant effect on maximum acceleration than the torque loss does at lower rpm by a long shot. Some dont realize just how big a difference that 30-40 extra whp past 7k makes on maximum acceleration. Its pretty significant and even more so when combined with cams
well my question is for you Alex is why do you recommend the boss manifold then over those others or why would you choose a boss manifold over the other manifolds because in earlier videos you said you would choose a boss manifold over any other manifold. I have a boss manifold on my car im just wondering why you would choose a boss over the GT350 or 18?
bro I like this channel hitting that sub, both the swapped manifolds probably wouldn't get their ass kicked as much down low if they had imrcs, that's what their made for, torque wise i should say
I think the gt350 intake manifold and 3.73 gears on an automatic wound be an awesome combination the low end punch from the gears and top end pull of the intake manifold wound be perfect. Plus the gears would keep you in the sweet spot of the rpm. Through some e85 and longtubes or cat delete it would be a killer street setup
Did you move around vct any? I apologize if I missed it. The 18 intake swaps on s550 and s197 cars I have done wanted some different valve events with the 18 manifold. I tuned both via mph in the quarter, though, not the dyno so other factors could be involved. However, I was seeing slightly higher maf lb/min numbers moving vct around slightly.
Stock manifold is good for low rolls and digs. Idk how many bolt on, manifold cars I drug in a headers, e85 tune only car. Ran out a gt350 mani, auto cars life from a 20.
I wonder how much better a ported stock manifold be? Great video though. Been on the fence about getting a 18 manifold, unless I get one for free. Rather just wait till I go with a PD blower.
I am dealing with the IMRC broken on my 2017 f150 and it was recommended to upgrade to the 2018. I noticed you mentioned vacuum issues with the 2018. I am wondering how you delt with the module from the stock manifold that is part of the vacuum system that bolts to the manifold directly behind the throttle body not having the option to bolt to the 2018 throttle body
Would porting that GT350 manifold help keep the torque caught up to the stock Supposedly ported 2018 intakes flow better than all including BOSS 302, GT350s what do you think
I appreciate the fact that you took the time to test the three intakes, but it is far from apples to apples. I bet the '18 intake or the GT350 intake would have had much better low speed torque production if you tested apples to apples with IMRC active. Lots of people seem to be using an MSD window switch to activate the IMRC. Would be an interesting test.
I noticed you were rocking a Long Tube Headers hat. I’m assuming you’ve had some experience with the brand and I was wondering what your opinion is regarding Long Tube Headers and their product quality in comparison to some competing high quality header companies like Kooks and American Racing Headers. Thanks!
So a ported 18 manifold is the same as gt350 That's my next mod on my 18. Thank you sir for a good info video My buddy got a 18 stock ported manifold pulls me pretty good up top.
It would be comparable the gt350 may still be better but itd be close. A ported gt350 would def be better but it cost more...cj even better but it costs more but if youre trying to go fast na ported cj is a must...find a used one already ported for a grand or so...youll have the edge over every other similarly modded stang 18 up that doesnt have a cj. You just gotta decide what is more important saving money and running good or spending some cash and running even better
From a test performed on my Gen II swapped fox. The 2018 lost hardly lost any torque while making more horsepower and increased rpm. This was an apples to apples test as both the gen II and gen III intakes were locked out. The gen II loses torque locked out. If you are going to run a 2 or 3 the same way, the 2018 is king.
Alejandro, I have a question. I have a 2018 Mustang GT and it's never been dynoed. Let's say that the HP numbers are average for a stock off the lot GT.i'M trying to decide on whether to do headers or not. I don't like loud. I want to know what is the horse power difference, IF ANY, if I stay with stock exhaust/manifolds, but add a E85 tune,and a CAI..... verses, adding a E85 tune, CAI, stock exhaust and cat-less long tube headers?
For road racing the 18 is a way better choice. Especially if you have 3.73 gears. With the stock mani you are constantly shifting because the power and is so narrow, if u go 18 and raise the rev limit to 7500 or so that's pretty much perfect for our coyote and for a road racing app

what about porting the stock manifold to see if you can keep the torque in the low end and raise the peak in the rpm range

This was all done same day sir took 9 hrs or so taking my time.
I would keep the stock manifold thanks for sharing. I would port the stock one. I would also remove the carbon filter inside the stock airbox.
Nice test Alex. I see the power gains in certain rev ranges, but I have to ask why do you think neither the 18 or the 350 made any better peak power? 385 wheel with e85 and a manifold seems low based on what others seem to have found. Thanks
Stock exhaust with cats along with the stock cold air choke the intake manifolds and they can't "breathe" as much as they would be able to if he had a free flowing exhaust and a PMAS.

bro I like this channel hitting that sub, both the swapped manifolds probably wouldn't get their ass kicked as much down low if they had imrcs, that's what their made for, torque wise i should say
I’ve rewatched this like five times
ty for saving me time and money. Makes sense to have low end torque for street driving
I think the gt350 intake manifold and 3.73 gears on an automatic wound be an awesome combination the low end punch from the gears and top end pull of the intake manifold wound be perfect. Plus the gears would keep you in the sweet spot of the rpm. Through some e85 and longtubes or cat delete it would be a killer street setup

Stock manifold is good for low rolls and digs.
Idk how many bolt on, manifold cars I drug in a headers, e85 tune only car. Ran out a gt350 mani, auto cars life from a 20.
Is there a huge difference between running the imrc vs locking out? I can deal with the headaches it comes with if it means a gain that’s worth it
I remember you staying that as a tuner you prefer to keep imrc's active when possible. Not worth it?
I like your shirt bro, and could not agree more
....amazing video description. Killer SEO value; zeroing in on the target FF audience!
You the man! awesome vid, great vid
Did you lock out the stock intake as well? It wasn't clear to me if you did or not! If not wouldn't the torque drop on the 15 intake?
I wonder how much better a ported stock manifold be? Great video though. Been on the fence about getting a 18 manifold, unless I get one for free. Rather just wait till I go with a PD blower.

Appreciate the comparison video!
After looking at every intake comparisons I could find I still think the stock one is the one for me. Gen II road race car.
For road racing the 18 is a way better choice. Especially if you have 3.73 gears.
With the stock mani you are constantly shifting because the power and is so narrow, if u go 18 and raise the rev limit to 7500 or so that's pretty much perfect for our coyote and for a road racing app
