@@stickytireproductions7516 In the AP, you can pick which cylinders to monitor. Though, you want to find whichever cylinder is the noisiest and monitor that one. If it makes you nervous, take the cable, unplug the AP for a minute. Then, toss it in the carrying case because you've just proven why they call it the "AnxietyPort."
jonathonhinkle89 do you or have you had misfire issues?. Not minor ones which seem to be normal but ones that would bring up an engine light? Thanks in advance
Jesse Mora I have bad misfires but not enough for the ECU to throw a CEL and I’m all stock minus the rear motor mount. I’ve changed plugs 3 times, checked coil packs, checked for vacuum leaks, changed the purge valve. Does it on stock, stage 0, and stage 1 tunes. Does it hot or cold with no oil or coolant loss 💁🏼♂️
@Donn Dene you bots need some trust with your girl, if your gunna be insecure little boys learn to love and trust them be in a relationship. No trust means it’s gunna end anyway
just picked up one for my '17 ST and the tips about popping out the OBD connector and panel cover are outstanding, makes for super clean install. thanks
hey you guys, quick add on to his video, i would replace oil temps with coolant temps, better and more accurate depiction for if the engine is hot bc coolant temps fluctuate more than oil temps do. just a tip from me i drive 13 st with the same accessport have fun you guys ❤️
Can you monitor the Ignition correction with 2 x cylinders on 1 x gauge? I usually monitor Cylinders 1 and 4 which take up 2 x gauges. (with the max of 6 at any one time) 100% agree with monitoring boost, AFR and Charge air temp.
Absolute top video!! Probably one of the most informative videos on a particular subject i have watched. Top geezer, many thanks. You come really easy to understand and clear explanations.
Just got a Megan racing downpipe. Looking into tunes. Just threw on the AWE track edition. Injen intake. Sounds naughty. Can’t wait for the DP and Tune. 🤤🤤🤤
I wish there was another device that could monitor stuff. I have a runabout 2014 ST, it has a self learning tune on it, ad in it automatically adjusts to fuel octane, air temp, DA, etc. IE, if you put 95 octane in after running low on 91, it will take about 30-40 miles or so of driving for the tune to learn the higher octane and then adjust accordingly. Also, not related to aftermarket tunes, most Fords made after 2011 have an adaptive learn cycle built in to the ecu, so if your cruising like granny, throttle input will be slow and acceleration slow, then if you give it the boot for next 6-10 miles, it will adjust, and accelerate quicker.... So back on topic. I wish there was another tuner that was very Ecoboost experienced that had a self tuning type of tune. Also, if I put a cattless dp on, do I still use 2 O2 sensors or 1?? I am also getting difficult starts after fueling. I keep the tank between 1/2 and 3/4. I had the recall reflash of the car by the dealer and no deformation of my fuel tank and the hard starts keep happening, and occasionally at idle when at a light, rpms will start to go up and down from 400 rpm to 1200 rpm 6 or 7x and has even stalled on me if I do not keep revs up. Some one told me purge valve and charcoal canister near rear should fix this. Living in 104-115 degree heat 3-5 months a yr doesn't help nor does Fords capless fuel system, the first of all manufacturers. Causes vapor lock. Something very common from pre 1990 model yr cars.
Does it have to be mounted at all times? Can you just reflash ecu and leave it disconnected? People say you want to monitor items but aren't the calibrations optimized so you don't have to keep eye on ratios etc?
Alright well that must explain the p0171 code the dude before me probably had a crazy tune causing over boost to make the lean code because theirs to much turbo air and not enough fuel🤯
So is any Negative number on the ignition correction dangerous? Or is it only when doing a pull? Sometime I notice there be a -.6 or I seen it go up or -.9 is that something I should be worried about?
I wish you could just plug in the AP and start monitoring, I dont like the fact they make you flash the ecu with one of their OT tunes in order to just monitor to finish the install process. All I want to do is Monitor not flash or tune my ecu 😑.
I bought an accessport but when i go to install on the car it says this vehicle is not currently supported by this accessport. Anyone know how to fix this issue have a ford focus st
I have a 2017 focus st, how significant is the difference going from a stock tune to stage 1 on the accessport?? I have an AWE track cat-back exhaust and an Injen cold air intake and I’m running it on 93 as of right now. Any insight on this would help :)
Im getting 0 to -.0 ignition correction on a day to day basis but not on WOT just pudding around or half throttle is this something I should be concerned about?
Hey, if someone could answer that’d be great!! If my Ignition Corr. Cyl 1 goes from 0 to .50 then to 1 and sometimes maybe 1.50 then back to 0 when I let off the gas is this normal? I rarely see it go way up to 4.00... thanks!
Okay I have a question I just recently bought a focus st 50k miles has some stuff done it and it has the cobb accessport. Okay ignition cylinder 1 amd 4 stayed at -1 for 2 weeks now all pf a sudden the ignition correction numbers go into the positive wjen I get on the gas but after I let off the gas they go back down to 0 and then ot shows a negative number under 0 like-2.7/4 can you tell me what this means
ST is a 2.0 turbo rated at 252 hp stock and it depends on which SE you're speaking of. The 3 cylinder 1.0 turbo is rated at 123 hp and the 2.0 non turbo is rated at 160 stock! More upgrades available for the ST as well!
ST3_Vitoo that’s actually not correct. If he unmarries it from his car he can send it to Cobb and they’ll change it to whatever car he wants. A friend of mine had the same AP V3 for his STi, VW and now his Ford Raptor.

?? If anything you are able to monitor everything going on a lot better and easier with the AP.. Are you just going by internet BS that this somehow causes people's motors to blow!? Because that is just not true, the majority of people having problems are because of major inexperience in how to drive a turbo car(not lugging motor, like stomping on it in 5tg or 6th gear while just cruising, and although it prob takes a long time the idiots doing pops and backfire tunes, poor fuel quality and other just dumb stuff etc). Having your motor fine tuned and running better is never a bad thing..

Dude FOR REAL.
@Cobb where you at?
i have one
Best video I've found so far that really explains what to monitor on focus ST AP and why. Thanks for sharing.
You can just tuck the wire in the OBD plug cabinet. Then run the cable out the whole that is already in the door where the handle is.
Just got my AP and I'm excited for the future, very new to tuning and all that stuff
Xr5 turbo is the goat of ford hot hatches

If your IAT is constantly much higher than ambient than it means you need an intercooler upgrade.

Ooof my AFR on 93 is like 10.80 and on E85 like 11.5 or so. I'm tuned by JST and it's always been that way.
JST tunes typically are pretty aggressive, squeeze the most safe power out as possible

what are the advantages of the Cobb AP compared to the sct x4 and the sct bdx tuners, not to mention Cobb wants a lot more money for there tuner
I’m running 93 octane and OAR is saying 1. What should I do? I just bought the car not even a week ago
Im getting 0 to -.0 ignition correction on a day to day basis but not on WOT just pudding around or half throttle is this something I should be concerned about?
so if i get this can i tune my car without going somewhere to get it tuned if ive never had it tuned before

I just got my AP v3 should I wait to install if I have 87 octane in the tank if I want to run the 93 tune ?
David Lopez yes, you shouldn’t be running 87 in an ST anyway. You can but it retards timing way to much to be safe
My car does 14.2 at idle is that bad?
hey is it possible to put this on an 2015 is350?
Nick d cobb does not make an accessport for the is350 but there should be other tuners out there for it
