3 Mods + 113 HP Gains- 2015 Mustang EcoBoost
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 чер 2016
- Watch at we take AM Expert, Heather's, 2015 EcoBoost Mustang and give it an engine overhaul. We want to see the full potential of the EcoBoost engine so first we install a must-have-mod, a cold air intake. We decided on the C&L Cold Air Intake which is an enclosed air box set up, which will help to keep the intake temperatures low, allowing for maximum performance.
The next modification we install is the Borla Off-Road 3 inch Downpipe which will free up any restriction in airflow and allow for the turbo to spool more quickly.
To go along with the Borla Downpipe, we install the Borla ATAK Catback exhaust for a more aggressive tone while also adding more performance gains. This exhaust offers one of the loudest sounds for the EcoBoost turbo system.
The final modification that ties all of these other mods together is the Cobb V3 tune. After a dyno run, this tune shows peak curve gains of 113 horsepower and 96 foot pounds of torque.
See all of these modifications and more right here www.americanmuscle.com/2015-ecoboost-american-muscle-customer-build.html

A true mustang owner wouldn’t bash another ecoboost owner because he thinks he’s better for having a GT. A true owner would admire any mustang for what it is.
Facts and as a first car, an eco is fast and still nice. Decent hp
Someone sounds hella insecure
@@ashtonl6122 I mean do you have a gt almost going to the gast station almost everyday taking it to work?
@@carlosalvarez5615 firstly you must work far secondly buy good gas no 76 quiktrip circle k etc.
@@ashtonl6122 sound like someone who ain’t got a fast whip.
Her arms got really large and hairy while she was installing those mods!
@Matt Salon 😂 thanks for the laugh
I didnt even see the install part yet, and still laughed .
🤣🤣
Yes, and watching her lean against it with a metal belt buckle, metal knife clipped in her pocket. I know some paint fanatics were triggered.
Lol
Take a shot every time she says "downpipe"
itsjustnate08 or "definitely"
Or air box haha. But nah i wanna live bro
I'm halfway through the fifth
did this last night, regretted it immediately
Nathan Werth that’s how you die
Exhaust system and tune to 400+ hp. Wow! Not bad! I love the sound too for a 4 cyl vehicle
Those are massive gains for an amazing price. Dope
Pair with upgraded turbo and it's 5.0 beater/territory
yeah 400 dollars for air intake haha
The 'old man' in me would've liked to see a aftermarket catted downpipe. Most of us would like our new car to pass state inspection after we mod it!
Sorry about that, Ken! The following link will show you our currently selection of down-pipes, the vast majority are catted. Installing one of these guys will relieve some back pressure and give you more turbo noise, just keep things a little more legal. Hope this helps! -Zach www.americanmuscle.com/2015-mustang-down-pipes.html
Yeah it would probably sound better. Might not hurt to toss a resonator in too
Those are some awesome mods.Very detailed review.I just might buy one thx to you.These mods with the sport package checks alot of boxes.
Thanks for watching, Nathaniel! Hope this video served as some inspiration for a future build! -Zach
Car, girl, car, girl. Nice job.
Kurt Osterkamp blow
except for the engine sound which makes me puke
You thirsty. Gtfo
So after all that is it even cheaper then getting a v8?
@@PremiumAphid
When I bought my 2017 eco the GT on the same lot cost 20k more, for 3k I was able to get the car to a little over 300hp to the wheel and now it runs 13.3@104 in the quarter on the stock tires (custom cat back, intercooler, tune, intake)(stock the car ran low 14's and made a little more than 250hp to the wheels).
On long trips I can get as high as 34mpg at 70mph, mileage sucks in the city though because of my heavy foot and fondness of spinning tires.
As far as v8 noise goes, I also have a '17 F150 with the 5.0 so I have the best of both worlds.
Great video, the driving impressions was nice to have.
Great job guys!!
It sounds great, ands the performance is phenomenal. :)
Hey thanks! We appreciate it! -Zach
All over the Malvern area! I work in that area. Getting a Mustang soon. Great video girl knows her stuff!
Hey Bob, you know it man! Malvern is an awesome area. But thats awesome, what year Mustang are you getting? Keep me updated! - Matt
Is this any cheaper then just getting the v8?
Now time for a bigger turbo lol
"I hope you're a good driver"
*Camera cuts to her driving way over the double solid yellow*
Lmao I came to see if anyone else picked that up
@@seanw9124 lmao, I will say though. This video is what led me to mod the hell out of my ecoboost. Brings back memories to when it was stock :,)
@@thegoldenkitchen221 don’t mod an eco boost , very unrealiable engine under and load other than stock don’t Believe me ? That’s cool come hit me up in a few years when ure shits more tired than my 9 year old German Shepard and ure warranty is gone lmao should have got the 5.0 more real and realiable almost bulletproof ... just speaking facts so ure research outside of the tool bag zone a.k.a. you have to actually look up the platform and not what’s affiliated with the mustang because it’s the same platform and no1 wants to admit it when they are the one driving the car so I’m shure u will get all mad at me but whatever ure still the looser with the shitty model mustang that no1 really wants and the sound like are u dumb or just def they sound horrible especially catless just stop stop stop please stop my ears were literally crying when I heard /found this out
@@mrgrump2534 thise engines will hold up similar, if not better than a 5.0 if you do internals. Before getting rid of my ecoboost, I had it just over 500whp. I can see you're the old school "V8s are the only way to go". Well, I urge you to think outside the box & realize there's other ways around it. My ecoboost, would smoke any stock v8 on the street. But yes, you are right, without internals being done, an ecoboost would blow when pushing 500+ horse power. Again, that's WITHOUT internals.
@@mrgrump2534 At no point during any of your incoherent ramblings did you address why it was a bad engine besides “it hurts your ears”. Ok Boomer, don’t forget your screw driver to tune your carburetor.
The Borla Atak axle-back for my ecoboost is awesome!
hows it sound though? canny??
commentary during the drive is great
She's really good at this!
The only downside to these baby’s are the exhaust sound. But other then that I’m impressed, I would like to see an EcoBoost with intake exhaust and tune vs the new 50k Supra with 335hp
I like the way it sounds!
i'm a little confused. I was looking at a 2017 Ecoboost and it shows up to 310 HP Stock...How come stock you only came up with 245HP....i was hoping if i invested $1500 in Mods i would be somewhere around 375 HP....Is that possible? your Mods bring it back up to a 2017 stock Eco boost according to my research.....Please advise
1st off, great job on the video. Love the personal thoughts on the exhaust in-car drone!!! Awesome job. Now how about a burnout and speed shift!!!!😉
Hey Scott! We just want to be real with you guys and give our honest opinion! Glad you enjoyed the video and definitely stay tuned....that burnout and speed shift might not be too far away! - Matt
I love it!!! Thanks for the response and I am looking forward to watching this!!! She is cool and nothing like a gal who can bang a stick shift and do awesome burnouts like the one she did in the giveaway car!!!
Gotta go for Pro tunes with the Access Port after putting a catless downpipe, also gotta gut the PCV or have tuner raise the RPM to prevent smoking issues with the Ecoboost. Once you start getting these bolt ons you also need the better intercooler. So dont expect to just get power and efficiency with the simple bolt ons without the knowledge and research. Also a good trusted tuner. Or all of this will give you problems down the road.
The tune did all the work
Solid review.
hey guys! I'm always checking out your videos and I wish you guys make a nice one telling us how to mod a 2015 mustang v6, thanks!
thats interesting why don't more brands make airbox filters seems smart seeing as it protects the filter
That's an excellent question. I was honestly thinking the same exact thing after I saw this take place. But who knows what these manufactures will be making in the future. - Matt
stillouthere
Price probably. Adding that little box brings up the cost.
It looks like a factory air box
More money making all new cars only reparable at the dealers so they just get that constant repair charge they can upgrade just don’t want to.
she does a nice job presenting products ...and is easy on eyes!
This is a quality video.
What size downpipe is the downpipe? Is it a 3 inch downpipe? It looks like a stainless downpipe. Nice downpipe.
watch the video bruh
I drove a stock ecoboost mustang for the first time a couple months ago, I was super impressed. Definitely would buy if I had the money.
Bruce Bartsch used?
Brotha I love mine, I posted a vid of when my eco was completely stock cold start sounds ok but forsure gives the GAP
10 speed as well brotha ! I love the 10 speed it just goes
@@Just_Vibing_Bro what’s GAP
that mustang looks really really good
Girl you got that horse power to breakthrough my heart ,,,,nice upgrades
I'm wondering if the tune will affect in any way the sport and track modes?
You're doing gods work overthere at American muscle. 💪
I've actually got the 1320 three inch downpipe. Had it for like 5 years. Then a Thermal R&D 3" cat back exhaust finishes it off.
Good review!
I have same exact intake but better exhaust system, car is in painting progress and i have not had a good chance to really test it, but it runs much better then other stock ecoboosts, 0-60 sport mode with traction on, with a bad start it did in 6 seconds, in track mode with great lunch i belive it can do 5 second with no problem❤️✌🏻
I’m a V8 guy but I think these ecoboosts are the best dollar for dollar performance cars. An American Supra. Ford should have called it the SVO it would have been cooler. Tune, a MILD exhaust setup (no lawn mower sounds, a little burble), down pipe, and for a $26,000 base price and $2500 in expenses and you have sub 5 second 0-60 car. High 12’s in the 1/4 for about $29000 is a banger of a deal
Well my 2015 Ecoboost sure demonstrated its power. At the strip, I just reached the 11s until I snapped an axel. As of 2022 I put over $70,000 into the car for anther 50hp and toughened the whole drivetrain. Slicks and the track compound are great at breaking cars. All those big turbo kits, Frankenstein the car and all you get is a plastic trophy if you win.
Great review.
What I want to know, is what exhaust works with that down pipe to get the power without sounding like a canary fart?
I am surprised a larger aftermarket intercooler wasn't installed, the car must have been heatsoaking bad when running hard with that downpipe installed.
First thing you should do in my opinion
I hope you're a good driver.
*Straddles Double Crossed*
I’ve owned a built 2018 ecoboost 6 speed and now a 23 gt. I can say I would buy another ecoboost in a heartbeat!!!!
My '17 comes stock with 310 hp. I'd love to do this simple mod and up the power.
Intercooler is a good mod, a tune with intercooler gives a considerable increase in performance.
The factory intercooler is a terrible restriction to the stock setup.
Mine 2020 does too I have the 10 speed stock ! Sounds good if you’d ask me I posted a video straight from my phone it forsure isn’t like the V8 but not bad especially for how quick these cars are
@@Just_Vibing_Bro upgrade the turbo bro to a precision turbo they cost 1900$ and it’s bolt on not hard to install. If you upgrade the turbo it’s recommended you upgrade some other small parts for best performance.
thats not to the wheels though.
“I hope your a good driver” literally in the middle of the road
BRUHH 😂😂😂💀💀
literally in the middle of the road... Idiotic comment. Ive seen a lots of guys done exactly the same... in the middle of the road...
@@swizzoffice2078 it was about it being ironic you ignorant weirdo
@@zygoteguns9821 it was just a comment :)
would the intercooler added with all these make a huge diffrence or is it better to wait on it till maybe a bigger turbo ?!
Quick Question I brought the 2017 Eco boost and im not sure if this one has the same little mic in the rear roof lining to send a engine noise through the speakers to make it sound more beefer so I am wondering if I do the same exhaust mod will it make it louder because of the mic in the cab area
I drive an ecoboost I love it. I would like a v8 but this is crazy fun to drive
Oh I can only imagine! The EcoBoost is a great Mustang and I definitely would never turn down a chance to drive one! Plus there is so much that can be done mod wise to bring it up towards that V8 level! Have you done anything to it yet?? - Matt
I’m highly considering either a 2015-2017 Ecoboost S550, 2016-2017 Mazda MX-5 ND or (the car I’ve been following since 2007) the Toyotabaru BRZ FR-S 86. How is the S550 as a daily driver?
@@CancelledMcCree As a daily driver, it is probably the best, being the one with the biggest cargo space, usable rear seats, fastest in an overtaking maneuver (the only one where you probably don't need to downshift) and because of the turbo, it has power at low rpms helping you driving in town. And depending on where you live, it will probably also be the cheapest in the second-hand market.
PaxMu thanks! I live in Las Vegas & it seems the most sensible as a daily. The only thing that scares me is the keyless entry system
@@CancelledMcCree Doing a quick search, the safest and easiest thing is to buy a Faraday pouch and put the key inside when you're out of the car to block all radio signals the key can send and recieve. I don't know if there's a way to disable the proximity door locking mechanism.
I've never seen a comment section without.. comments.
So I know this video is from 4 years ago, but what tune from the access port did you guys used? Was it off the shelf tune or you guys made your own? Thanks!
I live in California and am thinking of the 2019/20 Mustang Performance Model with 330HP Turbo 4 from the RS Focus!
Do you Offer any Mods that are 50 State Street Legal to Mod the Newer 2019/20 Mustang Performance?...Thanks and God Bless!
Wait a minute, did she say down pipe? I missed must've missed that part.
How Many Times Did She Say Definitely In This Video???
Love The Video... Thanks...
Definitely a downpipe
Thx. I till love manaflow exhaust.
turbo back system and cai; what cobb tune was used? stage 1? u need an intercooler for stage 2 or over and cant use stage 1 with a dp?
Would rather get the Ford warranty-approved powerpack from Ford Performance. Similar gains. The only thing I would get from Cobb is their intercooler. And keep the stock exhaust LOL I don't want people to wonder which JDM is coming around the corner when I come cruisin' by LOL
WOODYxWOOD it definitely doesn't give the same gains
I am debating whether to go with the FP or get a custom tune. I got a used AP for 350 but havent installed it, I can get a custom tune for around 150, all in all I would end up paying less than the FP. I could care less for the shit intake that comes with the FP, the stock box performs just as good. Only thing holding me back is the warranty
you're definitely not muscle so you should embrace the 4 banger in your car lol
Protip: Intakes and exhaust are not necessary. Any gains you are getting are from the chip.
Am I gonna respond to a 2 year old comment?.
Yes, yes I am.
The Borla atak sounds awful, the best mufflers are are from Dynomax and magnaflow, deep aggressive tone but still subdued and no rasp, people think my car has the V6. I have a resonator delete and the dynomax 17733 super turbo series mufflers.
Love this video because it shows to the people that we don't know how to make more HR 😂 but u need to do a video for V6 as well. And more videos to make more HP
I couldn't agree with you more Manuel! But all I gotta say is....stay tuned ;) - Matt
That sounds nice asf 😍
245hp? Is there no turbocharger in it? Also I cannot find any other list of good mods besides this one for a ecoboost. I wanna get an ecoboost for my next car as well, also is there a good turbo kit for ecoboost that's around $1000?
310HP to the crank, 245HP by the time it gets to the tire due to drivetrain loss which happens on every single vehicle regardless of engine. There *is* a turbo in the 2.3L Ecoboost. Really the biggest modifications you can do for an Eco outside of installing a larger turbo are the ones shown in this video! Cold air intake kit, downpipe, cat-back exhaust system, a nice tune from a company like 5StarTuning, and maybe a new blow-off valve to hold boost a little better. You can always look into a replacement turbo kit and camshafts like the links below, but parts and labor are going to be MUCH more expensive compared to the previously mentioned bolt-on mods. Hope this helps! -Zach

Thoughts on a catch can? Do you need one with these mods?
I know this is hella late but on cars that are direct injection only I’d recommend a Catch Can period since your deposits go straight into the intake.
I just don't get why there is no comparison in acceleration and top speed with these mods. How much faster does the tuned version get to 60?
My 2017 struggled to get 6.1 0 to 60 stock.
With the Ford performance tune, intercooler, catback and 93 fuel I have gotten a 4.9 0 to 60.
Bob Brians my bone stock 10 speed ecoboost hit 5.1 secs. Have the video for proof. The 10 speed is a badass transmission
TheDustyaman have to agree with that but still 6.1 to 4.9 is night and day
My stock automatic hit 5.6 on sport mode. After adding an aftermarket downpipe it dropped it to 5.2
Bob Brians I’ve hit 5.5 on mine stock automatic
How much horsepower will the cold air intake add? My car is stock.
Very knowledgeable fella
i feel like i need a girlfriend like her.
Me too, but that would piss off my wife.
I love Stephs face when she talks about the sound, like yeah it sounds like a 4cyl, blah give me the GT!
Where can I find the downpipe... I’ve looked everywhere or what’s another good pipe to use...
I like the sound
So around $3k could get you those gains pretty good lol
Omg sounds like a import, not for me. I'm interested for bora downpipe and cold air box.
Its a 4 cylinder what do you expect?
+Sean Tyrone I didn't.
One of the few times where I think stock exhaust sounds better. Wow, Borla usually does a great job, but this sounds like crap.
I'm keeping my stock resonator and cat.
yeah imma stick with the down pipe and no muffler mods. I love popping but its hard to get without the loud import sound (100% expected though)
This may be a silly questions, but what sort of impact, if any, do these mods have on MPG in the EcoBoost?
None if you can keep your foot out of it.
Do you think the
Borla ATAK Cat-Back Exhaust with 2.25-inch tubing will fit the CVF 3-Inch Stainless Steel Catted Downpipe well?
I love the Mustang. Hearing it with a 4 cyl sounds really strange to me.
Hankola, yeah in my personal opinion I am not a big fan either. But hey, for an EcoBoost it does have some nice power, and has exhaust options that can change up the sound a little bit for sure. The Turbo is what makes me happy at the end of the day. I would definitely rock an EcoBoost Mustang! - Matt
I totally agree, but I bought one anyway. lol It's actually pretty fast, 5.4 zero to 60. Better than the 94 Trans Am I had back in the day.
hey not all of us can afford a new GT, but we still want that lookgood and gofast. the 2020 ecoboost has 320hp and 350footlb of torque, starting at 25k brand new. Why im looking at one for my next car.
Aaron B I just bought one its pretty quick
Aaron B 310hp 350 tq*
I want to see this with a turbo upgrade
I like the video, and I had Atac on my Vett but I will go with another exhaust for my 2019 EB. I need to do calls while driving and want a quieter exhaust with good sound and performance
May want to just look into a Borla Touring setup instead! That way you'll get more sound than factory but you won't have any drone! -Zach
www.americanmuscle.com/ford-performance-by-borla-touring-catback-exhaust-w-chrome-tips-2018-ecoboost.html
whats the best tune to get for eco stangs i hear
lund unleashed or cobb cant make up my mind
btw, looking at the hp/torque curve even after putting all this stuff on one thing is clear, the ecoboost needs more cam(s). Thing looks like it dies at around 5000rpm.
Either a larger cam or larger turbo, yeah. The powerband looks like it's NA. You can see everything switch over (valve timing, etc.) around 4000 RPM, but there's not much above that.
Nothing hotter than a girl that knows cars. Fact
Pretty sure she's just a pretty face reading the teleprompter...
not really she get her hands dirty on her Mustang and knows how's to drive stick
Not while she was driving, and she appeared to handle that clutch and gear shift as well as some guys I know!
Flyin Brian
Lol she has a manual 650+ hp sn550.
What about a girl that knows cars AND guns AND motorcycles?
Intercooler would definitely add more. Great setup though...now if I can find the damn parts
I tried looking though the comments. Was this with stock boost pressure? Or was it the duty turned up?
are there any vids on a v6 2016 mustang with the same mods aside from the turbo? I would like to see how much you're gaining if it were a v6 2015-2016 mustang..... in manual.
PALEHORSE the gains would be close to nothing, because n/a engines don't get the kinds of gains from a few bolt ons and a tune like turbo engines do.
PALEHORSE I would rather have turbo 4cl v6 are gay
Manuals are gay automatic is faster
@@thanosbustedinyourmum depends on the car .... The new mustang with the 10speed auto is definitely faster but the 6speed auto was about the same as the 6speed manual.
I like my ecoboost 2.3 it's really fun to drive and is easy on my wallet, I will in the future upgrade my air intake and exhaust.
I just brought my exhaust today I'll be getting the rest at a later date
@@ejlive1997 what exhaust did you get?
@@jreed2972 I got the borla atack
@@ejlive1997 ok great!! I will be working on mine soon.
Will the stage 1 tune on the Cobb work the automatic EcoBoost?
also was the tune you did on your accessport custom or one of their pre mapped ones?
i thought they said it was custom, but i'm not sure. i was wondering the same.
I'm sure the connecting rods appreciate all that low end torque lol.
OH MY GOD. she is driving nice to see someone new for a change. no offence justin LOL.
I just bought the 2016 ecoboost premium is there much of a difference between 15 and 16
I have the borla atak catback already and am going to install the downpipe. The only problem is American Muscle won’t ship the Cobb Accessport to my country :(
So you removed the catalytic converter and still drive it on the street? Are there emission tests where you live?
America, F*** YEAH!
Joel Borden lmao who tf follows emission laws 😂
It depends. I don't live within city limits, so emissions tests are not required
Put the stock pipe back on, pass emissions, take it off. Profit.
Joel Borden new cars dont need emission tests. Atleast where i am🤷🏾♂️
I hate how this engine sounds makes me feel proud of my 3.7
It's a typical turbo 4cyl. These 2.3L EcoBoost motors run very strong. Its orig the RS rally car motor. Very strongly built. Plenty power whether a Mustang/ Ranger truck or Lincoln small SUV!. Love all Ford motors. Best in business.
@@Davido50 It came to the US on the Mazdaspeed3, CX7 and Mazdaspeed6 before the RS. I have the Speed3 and it's definitely Ford's 2.3L Ecoboost!
Carlos Gonzalez Mazda speed 3s run 18lb boost and ecoboost runs 20
They should have made a twin turbo V6model mustang and kick the V8 in the nards for once.
Seriously I installed a k&n on my 2016 EcoBoost 3.7 sounds way better than the turbo. Pretty sure its faster too.
can someone tell me what COBB tune was used? I have same intake and exhaust but the stage 1 tune threw off my timing and had performance issues
You guys no longer stock the borla off road down pipe. What do you you prefer instead?
Two things that should be added to that package of mods are a bigger intercooler and an oil catch can. A better sounding exhaust would help too 'cause that one sounds like a lawnmower. Yuk.
That said, Stephanie Wood can review my car and test the stick shift anyday!
Hey Dino. You are totally right my man. The oil catch can should definitely be added in regards to safety and keeping the engine clean by keeping oil out of the intake. In regards of the intercooler, you're right again. I personally would definitely add a front mount if this was my EcoBoost but Heather decided not to in this stage, but I doubt she is done YET.
I would probably go with a quieter aftermarket exhaust. Some of the take-off and rev clips sounded like a tractor/dirt bike, but overall I like the car
yes and increase the turbo noises with an external wastegate and bov
Mbrp black cat back performance 3” is the best sounding I’ve found for the ecoboost it’s what I use.
Just got a ecoboost mustang two days ago and it came with that exact air intake, do you know if i added a whole exhaust system if it would mess up the Ford tune i have on it?
Nope! If you're just adding a cat-back system along with that air intake, you won't have any issues. If you plan on changing the down-pipe though, I'd highly recommend getting a new tune to account for it since that will be a much larger change in back-pressure compared to factory. Don't want to mess up the new ride, yknow! -Zach
I love American Muscle. She's really good too.
How much did these mods change the MPG?
No change unless u stay WOT
wondering the same question.
WOT?
WOT=Wide Open Throttle
I added a turbo to my car and the gas mileage is about the same, maybe 1 to 2 mpg better.
Delicious
Is the borla stype catback on the ecoboost louder than the v6 stype??
Hi, Very good mod. I wonder how does it affect fuel consumption. I'm interested on this car. I think it's going to be my next car. I was much into the V8 because of the sound. But fuel consumption is a concern for me. So if I decided to buy an Ecoboost and make this modification with you guts, how much does it affects to fuel consumption? Thanks! =)
That much extra horsepower is obviously gonna affect mileage a tiny bit, these mods are going to help the engine burn better and send the power more efficiently than stock so the mpg difference might be negligible to none.
Depends entirely on how you drive it. With the freer flowing intake and exhaust, driven conservatively, it might just do better than stock, fuel economy wise. Then again, anyone who would spring for that kind of modification is probably "not" going to be driving it conservatively. If the driver actually "uses" that extra hp and torque on a regular basis, they can kiss the fuel economy goodbye!
