The IMRCs give you the benefit of having a short and long runner manifold in one combo. The reason for that is that the flats will open making the intake manifold runner longer which is better for low end torque and fuel economy. It does improve drivability significantly. I’ve worked at a dealer for 3 years I’ve only seen one fail. And it was on gen3 car and it was the vacuum actuator that failed it had a small leak. Still locking them out you’re just locking them in one position so you just remove the benefits this manifold offers.
@@Sleeper_Solutions I custom tune these and install aftermarket mods such as supercharges, turbos etc. I’ve seen 9 of them fail with miles from as low as 20k to 115k. The power gains through the curve and from a dig locking them out is unmatched.
Lately, I’ve seen a lot of people changing the IM to the ‘18 (on 15-17 cars). Are the ‘18 IMRC’s made better or fail less? I think if I had an IMRC problem, might be time to supercharge this beast.
I agree, a lot of 18 mani swaps going on for sure. I like your style. Just throw a positive displacement blower on at this point and be done with it lol.
I have a 2017 Manual with 9,300 miles on her. Love the manual to death makes me feel like a kid again. But anyway she's Been garage kept and only taken out on weekends.. I am starting to want Mods.. Short throw, Tune with Intake or super charger, Don't know if I want to spend that kind of money yet on an SC... I hear with the right intake and Tuner 500 wheel is attainable without Induction?? Oh and I hear people saying Boss 302 or GT 350 Intake.. But IDK...
That’s a sick ride! I like your thought process too. Boost is expensive but you can add 200 wheel with boost very easily. Then to add another 150 all you need to do is pulley down. We’re making 822 wheel on my 17 Gt350 with just a Vortech. However you can make some serious power as is or with a few mods. We’re a JLT dealer so I recommend that intake and custom tune and you’ll be flying! If you want to go FBO throw in a GT350 mani or even a 18+ (both make about the same power and a GT350 throttle body. We can dial it right up for you. The coyotes have a ton of torque management and clutch protection that by just removing it will shave a half a second off your 1/4 mile.
Honestly it would help tremendously if you could help me know what to plug or route,.. on those leftover Vacuum hose ports after installing IMRC Lockouts. Cannot find one video. Thanks.
Mine broke down, both sides are stuck open and i think its leaking vacuum, so I will replace them, the thing is i dont want to modify a lot of the car, what could be a direct replacement for that? im a little bit worried to get the same manifold since a lot of people says it fails kinda often
Hi.! Pretty nice video..! Mine is code p2006, I guess is closed.. how important or urgent is it to replace it. I have been seen a lot entire intake manifold replacement… (For a 2017 F150)
How many miles do you currently have? I’ve replaced mine personally only to have the problem happen again fairly early then just deleted them. I can tune you if/when you lock them out
Всех приветствую! У меня мустанг 5.0 2017 год, пробег 51000 миль, ошибки Р2006 - Р0300, скорей всего что то связано с вихревыми заслонками, так как датчики IMRC исправны и вакумный привод заслонок тоже в порядке!
Currently dealing with code p2005 should I just keep the 17 manifold and do the delete and tune? Or should I go with the 18 Manifold and tune? Trying to figure out what way to go. I don’t plan on adding any boost.
No, at low rpm there's less air needed, and if you have a long intake runner you're able to give the air more momentum which makes your engine more efficient. However at high engine rpm you need more air, so these flaps open which reduces the "velocity pressure" losses associated with the long runners
I put boss manifold on my 13 gt automatic and having all kinds of issues right now.people say you have to tee vaccumm lines i cant find one video some say you dont have to tee in a vaccum any advise?
Who’s tuning it Bobby? The only things I’ve seen on the boss is people missing an open vac port. However the tune is pretty involved as well so could be either issues. I’d be happy to help on the tune.
Please someone answer me this. I have a 2006 F150 with intake manifold runner stuck closed bank 1. If I lock out the runners and disconnect the arms and just connect the motor will this trick the computer and be able to work properly?
@@CFlo93 it won’t unfortunately. The ECU uses a unique strategy coinciding with airflow, load, rpm to move through the different VCT schedules related to the IMRC mapped points. You either have to leave them in functional or delete them and tune for it
@@CFlo93 you might find it running ok but it won’t be in the right mapped points at the right times. Just ran into this on the Dyno with mine. Lost 40 wheel due to it wanting to use fuel economy mode at wot
@@mustangdoctor3834 well I tried it because it’s an old dirt cheap f150 and its been working fine for me so far. I can tell a little difference in the amount of power from a stand still. I would assume a newer car just has a lot more brains and sensor functions in the ecm than mine does.
The Boss manifold is not better. There have been tests done that found the only thing better than the 18+ manifold is a ported 18+ manifold. Everything else actually flows less.
@@mustangdoctor3834 it’s all good brotha. I got a tune from Lund racing already… if I haven’t done that I woulda totally hit you up. Thank you tho 👍🏼🤙🏼
