MAPerformance: 500whp+ Ecoboost Mustang | How We Got Here, Future Plans

[@coinsagE46m3]

Imagine being one of those "it's only a Mustang if it's a V8" guys who owns one of the Coyote V8's then meets one of these at a stop light. Would pay serious money to see that guy's loser face after that inevitable race.

[@Sheepdog416]

+coinsagE46m3 Sure the ecoboost would win, but even MAP said that the car was a ticking time bomb running 500hp on the stock block. Serious money would have to go into the ecoboost to have it run reliably at 500hp.

[@coinsagE46m3]

Sheepdog416 That's true, sure, but even if the Ecoboost made even 400whp, which it could (and then some) reliably, it would still trounce the Coyote-powered Mustang by a respectable margin as it would have about 30 more whp and weigh less.

[@Sheepdog416]

+coinsagE46m3 Also true, but I would rather have a stock car that is almost as fast rather than a heavily modded car that's a little bit quicker (imo).

[@coinsagE46m3]

+Sheepdog416 I would too. I personally would rather have the Coyote - powered Mustang than the EcoBoost any day of the week. I however have mad respect for the tunability of the EcoBoost and recognize just how fast they can get. And I think people that dismiss it simply because it doesn't have a V8, despite the power it can make, are fucking ridiculous.

[@Sheepdog416]

Yeah fair enough! I have a 2015 GT and love the thing. Its definitely insane how much power you can push out of a stock 4cyl though jeez!

[@mariusdoiron9066]

best sounding ecoboost i heard yet ,

[@ChardDavis]

Agreed

[@lightning95sc]

Marius Doiron Agreed, Agreed This thing actually sounds wicked.

[@luisarevalo8394]

How can I replicate that sound?

[@andrewrout8712]

Make 500 RWHP

[@GolfCoyote]

Man, this is super impressive. Still wouldn't trade my 5.0 for anything in a similar price range, but I gotta give credit where credit is due.

[@Brofessor17]

Well yea cause the 5.0 burns more ethanol more methane/greenhouse gasses more merica

[@JCTiggs1]

The Ecoboost Mustang certainly has its place in the market. Where I live there is a $10k price difference between a base Eco vs base GT. Then you need to factor in the added cost of insurance and gas which is also expensive here. My driving is 90% city under 60 km/h. I had a 2011 GT 5.0 and I really couldn't use it anywhere. For someone in my situation who loves the look of the 2015+ design, wants the awesome and refined suspension, and only needs enough power and torque for quick burst here and there, the Ecoboost is a great bang for the buck purchase. Add a Cobb flash tune and the torque easily exceeds the Coyote motor.

[@carsgunsandguitars]

This is why I chose my 2015 Ecoboost Premium performance package over a GT. The only thing I did was an Ford Racing CAI and MAP intercooler and a Cobb tune and I had a quiet street sleeper that consistently got over 30mpg on road trips for business and was as fast as GT on the street and I only paid $30k for it new. It was cheap to insure, and actually handled better than the GT due to the lighter weight over the front and squared tire size.

[@PaPWPW]

Damn that actually sounds very nice, kinda like a muscle car version s2000 with torque and a nice interior

[@PaPWPW]

Get a set of 275 M&Hs and get some timeslips!

[@Brock_Landers]

This is just simply awesome. I would've never thought that Ford would release an Ecoboost Mustang but now that they did I've been really interested in getting my hands on one. To see that you've made that much of an improvement in power out of that little 2.3 while still using stock everything engine wise kind of seals the deal for me. My wife works for Ford and I get to enjoy a HUGE discount. Looks like a Stang is in my near future! First call is to MAPerformance.

[@maperformance]

Robert Keeton We are glad to hear you are excited about what we are doing! And we are excited for your call.

[@PS-ro7oy]

+Robert Keeton the name is new but ford made turbo 2.3 mustangs in the late 70's to mid 80's, i think the 79 pace car could have it non intercooled but the most known is the 84-86 SVO mustang. different engine of course than now but same displacement.

[@Sinoops]

If the engine is tuned it's by definition not stock

[@jayminer5336]

Sinoops false

[@remisis023]

Your results give a good indication of how strong the Focus RS motor will be, pretty exciting.

[@zx6rkawi09]

Im a die hard v8 guy but got to drive a new eco boost auto for a week and they are impressive! Dont fuck around and pull up beside one from a dead stop in your v8 and get your feelings hurt! It matchs most v8 cars in hp and tq on most mustangs 2010 and older. With exhaust, tune, cold air intake I have seen 310 rwhp and crazy tq from a 4cyl. thats pushing close to 400 at the crank.

[@jonathangreene9017]

this car is proof of the Evostang fad thats been going on. Real car guys know the 4G63 is an awesome motor for racing/power/co$t and this 2.3T will open alot of eyes up to the setup. half as much rotating parts less friction/cheaper builds and spend the money on boost - less fueling at part throttle and more room underhood.

I don’t see any mention of the crankshaft not having a keyed snout in the stock 2.3 EcoBoost. We have installed a stock EcoBoost into our full race Ford Cortina GT, with a dry sump system,straight exhaust , large intercooler along with a T5/G-Force gears and Winters mini quick change. Plans are to install a keyed crank and gear over this coming winter. I do not trust the non keyed setup and the disaster that enfolds should that fail, well there goes our motor

[@maperformance]

Thank you!! Good luck on your GT, come race us ;]

[@michaelrodgers6559]

See what happens when you run even a third of the boost on your GT as they are on this eco... hell you can get one of several warrantied and proven positive displacement supercharger kits on the market and remain otherwise stock and make more power with all the reliability. I know for a fact that at least one company even puts a warranty on the kit and engine... it's a no brainer.

[@thatsmrgimp2u]

Very excited to see what you guys are doing with this platform. Just ordered your intercooler kit today and cant wait to get that on along with my methanol setup. Going to try a percentage of e85 as well and a smaller pre turbo meth nozzle (in addition to the one at the tb) and see how much power I can squeeze out of the stock turbo. Once its dust, your turbo kit is next on my list ;)

[@maperformance]

Everette Stephens Glad to hear it! Thanks for your order. If you have any questions along the way we are happy to help.

[@BlackWhiteBeast]

All I can say is the Focus RS is going to be a BEAST with all of these upgrades lol!

[@homeaudiobasics]

over a year later how is the motor holding up?

[@BreadBoxSS]

+MAPerformance ...respectively, the fueling limits your reaching are similar to GM's '08+ 2.0T. It would be impressive to see someone develop a DI/PI fueling system that can be easily programmed with stock ECU, cycle in conjunction with intake vavle position, analyze and adjust fueling tables all at the same time.

[@freddyflirt15]

Yes please! I've got a ranger and that would be amazing!

[@alandominguez1707]

I never heard the term "stock block" until I was talking to some ricers. In my understanding, you could either have an aftermarket block or an oem

[@rgroovy3755]

Did u guys keep going on the build? I’d wanna get my ecoboost in that 6-700hp range if it’s possible

[@camtaliban6021]

Just cop the v8 at that point bro

[@Paper.Power.Politics]

I’m doing the same things right now, getting a big power build set up , for 600whp-900whp , which is different then the set up for under 700whp. Big power set up uses different block and head, lower power set up also uses different block but retains the factory head which is limited to 700whp and even at those lower level your expecting head lift and air flow problems. That why anything above 650-700whp they use the 4 port ecoboost head , and the lower power is the factory head 2.3 TS head. So really depends what your goals are. Stock ecoboost mustang engine can make 400whp reliable. And only need a nx2 turbo and intercooler to be at 400whp. Above that you need to go into building and bigger turbos

[@anthonyf2968]

[@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq]

Now wait, at 2:40, you say no removal of anything for the intercooler upgrade, except the old unit. Hmmm :/, your video shows bumper off.

[@maperformance]

If you watch the actual install video we show both ways, taking the bumper off is easier but not required.

[@3star2nr]

I've never liked American cars I hated their suspension the pompous owners the shitty build quality and the unreliable drive train but yo. something happened over at Ford round about 2010 they started putting out some motherfucking cars. I've driven in a 5.0 2013, it is 100% perfect the suspension setup from dampening to stability is perfect. then there's that engine fuck me running. I saw a 2015 ecoboost today and I haven't wanted a car this bad since I first saw an evo 9. I'm saving up my down payment now cause I gotta get that car. It's the only American muscle car I've ever considered buying it's also the firdt car on a long time to bring back the feeling of wanting a fun car. seriously if your a car guy try one out Ford really killed it

About to get a track pack performance pack 2018 ecoboost and I'm super excited. I used to own an ND miata but someone ran a red light and totalled it. Wanted to get another fun car and my roommate recently got an s550 ecoboost and let me drive it a bit.

I think what makes mad about the ecoboost is it says 310 rwhp, but it means engine not wheel

[@nssherlock4547]

jordan - R is rear ,as in rear wheel horsepower

Recently purchased a 2017 Mustang EcoBoost. Does the tune remove the speed limiter?

[@Knight305Shadow1]

Cobb stage 1 tune removes it

[@toussaints1]

whats the MPG looking like on this setup?

[@maperformance]

toussaints1 We don't really have an accurate estimate at this time. Its running mixed fuel and when it's driven we beat the snot out of it! When it was on pump gas we were around 23-25 MPGs with very aggressive driving! BUT because the turbo is bigger it doesn't demand as much fuel during part throttle driving so it should be getting roughly around the same or better as stock because the fuel system hasn't changed from stock and again, the fuel demand is less.

+MAPerformance In other words, you guys are running 114+? I really doubt the 23-25 mpg claim with the added intake of air for that HP level. Also this video was put out in June, did it ever get any runs at the track? 1/4 mile times would be awesome to see. I really don't care much for dyno results (dyno machines vary and can give varied hp claims). I like real world results. Other than that, you guys did a really nice job with fab and parts. Would like to see performance runs....

23reasonz We plan to hit the track full force next month: www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27464

By the time you add up ALL these mods and labour at a good performance shop,(plus the cost of the car) you might be damn close in price to a used 13-14 gt500 !!!!!!!
