Required Accessport Firmware:

  • V3: 1.7.3.1-16381 or greater




Map Availability: Download from the COBB Tuning Mustang EcoBoost OTS Map Database 



Fuel Requirements: 
Each map lists the minimum required octane. A higher octane fuel can be used safely on a map designed for lower octane. DO NOT use maps designed for higher octane with lower octane fuels. Top Tier gasoline should be used where available.

  • Maps designated with "87" are for use with 87 and 89 octane fuel or better.
  • Maps designated with "91" are for use with 91 and 92 octane fuel or better.
  • Maps designated with "93" are for use with 93 and 94 octane fuel or better.


  • Maps designated with "95" are for use with 95 RON fuel or better.
  • Maps designated with "98" are for use with 98 RON fuel or better.




Calibration Strategy Information 
See our Octane Adjust Ratio technical article for additional information regarding some of the strategies we utilize in these calibrations! 

In order to keep the cooling system working efficiently in the most diverse array of conditions, the temperature threshold for fan operation has been lowered so that they come on sooner.  This can also mean that the fans will continue running after your car is shut down.  This is normal expected behavior.

Peak Gains are measured as the absolute maximum value between the highest points of two plots.
Max. Gains are measured as the average maximum value between the highest and lowest point of two plots. 

Results may vary. Power as tested on 2015 Mustang EcoBoost vehicles using top tier fuel. 

Generally speaking, 91 octane calibrations have a richer fuel curve, and a less aggressive ignition advance map to help compensate for lower octane fuel blends such as those found in Arizona, California, and Nevada; and/or less than ideal atmospheric conditions. The maps designed for 93 octane are the most aggressive. 


*91 and 93 octane results are compared against a 93 octane fuel baseline. Your 91 octane results may be higher than listed above; as a baseline of 91 octane fuel may read lower than our 93 octane baseline.


Stage1

  • Intake Requirement: Stock airbox and COBB air filter 7M1101
  • Exhaust requirement: Stock exhaust, or COBB Cat-Back Exhaust 5M2150
  • Boost:
    • 91 OCT or 95 RON Up to ~23.0psi tapering to ~19.5psi by redline. (+/- 3psi).
    •  93 OCT or 98 RON Up to ~23.0psi tapering to ~19.5psi by redline. (+/- 3psi).
      • Map slot 1 = Max Perf. – This is the standard OTS map with full boost.
      • Map slot 2 = Mid-High Perf. – This is the standard OTS map with 6% less boost.
      • Map slot 3 = Mid-Low Per. – This is the standard OTS map with 11% less boost.
      • Map slot 4 = Low Perf. – This is the standard OTS map with 17% less boost.
      • Map slot 5 = Economy - This mode disables the wastegate and adjusts WOT fueling and ignition timing for efficiency. This can be used to quickly lower power for times when performance is not needed.


Stage2

  • Intake Requirement: COBB intake system 7M1100
  • Intercooler Requirement: COBB front mount intercooler system 7M1500
  • Exhaust requirement: Stock exhaust, or COBB Cat-Back Exhaust 5M2150
  • Boost:
    • 91 OCT or 95 RON Up to ~24.5psi tapering to ~20.5psi by redline. (+/- 3psi).
    •  93 OCT or 98 RON Up to ~24.5psi tapering to ~20.5psi by redline. (+/- 3psi).
      • Map slot 1 = Max Perf. – This is the standard OTS map with full boost.
      • Map slot 2 = Mid-High Perf. – This is the standard OTS map with 6% less boost.
      • Map slot 3 = Mid-Low Per. – This is the standard OTS map with 11% less boost.
      • Map slot 4 = Low Perf. – This is the standard OTS map with 17% less boost.
      • Map slot 5 = Economy - This mode disables the wastegate and adjusts WOT fueling and ignition timing for efficiency. This can be used to quickly lower power for times when performance is not needed.


C.A.R.B Note

The above Stage1, Stage2 calibration(s) is legal for use on Emissions Controlled Vehicles in all 50 states when used in accordance with the manufacturer's application guide because it and the parts have a California Air Resources Board (CARB) Executive Order (EO) number: 


Non-Performance Maps

  • Stage0
    • Stock style map that allows datalogging
  • Anti-Theft Mode
    • Will not allow vehicle to run
  • Valet Mode
    • Fuel Requirements: 87+ Octane (RON+MON/2) (89+ RON) fuel minimum
    • Intake / Exhaust Requirements: Any
    • Boost: Stock Settings
    • Rev Limiter: 3100 RPM
    • Speed Limiter: 35mph (56.3 kph)




Closing Warnings and Precautions:

  • Use of inappropriate calibration/modification combinations will promote engine damage.
  • COBB OTS mapping is NOT designed to be used with upgraded aftermarket boost actuators or solenoids. Doing so may result in much higher than desired boost and potential engine damage. Seek the help of a COBB Accesstuner Professional should your vehicle fall outside of OTS configurations.
  • Top Tier gasoline should be used where available. Use of lower quality fuels can result in catastrophic engine damage.
  • WARNING: Burnout Mode, Launch Control, Transbrake, and Flat-Foot-Shift (LC/FFS) are abusive to the engine, clutch, transmission, axles, and differential. The user accepts all risks and responsibilities when using these features.
  • WARNING: Performance calibrations not designed for use when towing.
