2018 F150 Intake Manifold on 13’ GT?

[sonicx]

Wondering if it’s worth swapping on a 18+ f150 intake manifold on a 2013 5.0? If so, I realize a tune / re-tuning is needed.
Couple questions:
1) If it’s worth doing, what’s the power increasing going to be?
2) what other parts, wiring, lockout is needed besides the manifold itself.

I did this on my 12. I have a vortech JT and e85. I went from 860/682 down to 839/683. The peak torq happened over a 1000rpm sooner. Weird thing is 18 truck manifold peak H.P. was 200 rpm higher, but it was 20hp less than stock intake. 18 truck intake on a 11-17 truck would be great, keep away from mustangs.

did you go to a 18+ mustang manifold?

No. You'll pick up more low end tq but you'll run out of steam up top. It isn't designed for top end. Just get a gen 3 mustang manifold.

Yes it was a 18 truck manifold. If your car is a auto with stock converter don’t change manifold. If your car is manual go with 18 mustang intake.
