Of course companies sway data, but I still haven’t seen any data that leads me to doubt what was provided.

Easily offended? No. Do I like to keep a clean, civil site? Definitely. If you have issues with a member’s information, absolutely make light of it and question it. If you can’t do that in a manner that I find fits what my staff and I have worked hard to build this forum to be, then we can discuss that, too.

VMP a sponsor? Do you see their logo anywhere? They’d be the first sponsor in history to not want publicity for their financial backing.

I feel so stupid without having the inside scoop on Facebook conspiracy theories.
Not like this scenario is endemic to modern culture though LOL.

To back this way up, I don’t recall anyone ever suggesting the mustang intake manifold is better than anything, more top end power than stock F150 manifold yes, so I’m not sure what led to all this pontificating?

Or, the moderator should ban Todd because he is now back, and I should spit the hook out.

do you have any pics of where and how you drilled the hole for the map sensor? Im about to do the swap myself.

There's a few ways to do it wrong, here is my opinion of the "right" way.

so rtv, another o ring, magic? Idk how a sensor will seal with just a tight fit. The o ring is too far down the steam to seal in that scenario.

Default I used RTV all around.

Not beautiful but works fine.

Oh, and said “closed Facebook page” proof consists of the exact same baseless chest thumping as the previous posts by “rig”.
The latest Westech dyno data backed up VMP’s claims 100%
No debate, the 2018 GT Manifold is the one to beat.
