Thanks Adam the first video that shows the actual process of Cobb unit. I'll look forward to video that shows how driving experience has changed from FPM375 👍👍
Very interesting to hear about you picking MSD over Mountune due to the amount of Mountune parts on the car. Can't wait for next week's review to hear your thoughts on it👍
I added the driving skill a while ago ;) If you meant the driving to show the what it is like, I was aware that if I did that in this vid then the vid would have been crazy long so the follow up video is coming next friday! :)
Are the pops and bangs on the Cobb map safe for a standard cat? What helped the decision to go with Cobb and not the next level up with Mountune? I love how they integrated the cruise control buttons to switch between maps, pretty neat. Looking forward to next weeks video mate 👍.
They are indeed safe. Not that much more than the standard pops and bangs, just more random and natural sounding. The next vid explains things more as well giving some detail and examples of the pops and bangs. Tomorrow.... cheers :)
Hi Mark, unfortunately the Mountune version of the accessport doesn't let you add other tuner's maps as far as I know but you can still download the accessport manager software from Cobb and do updates in the same way. Cheers :)
Hello, so you will either need to go to a tuner or you can do a similar type of tuning to me and contact MSD who will then get you to do data logging that you will email to them and then they will send a custom tune back
Hi John, it was't cheap, about 900 I think but then the accessport can be uninstalled and sold on in the future so it isn't wasted kind of thing. Cheers :)
I got my COBB access port from mountune is stated they are unlocked. I head alot about them being locked so IDK if they changed that. I am running stage one due to only having the intake and exhaust. My catless down pipe will be installed soon im just waiting to get the right connection, im still using the v-band clamp.
In the USA Mountune is different the Mountune in the UK. USA Mountune acts as a Cobb Pro Tuner offering OTS maps and custom maps via a vanilla Cobb Accessport, much like I have done with MSD, but Mountune in the UK modify the Accessports to only be compatible with their OTS maps as well not offering any custom mapping options
'this guy' knows exactly what the drive modes do which clearly you don't. You have the exact same amount of traction but less traction control, which would only be doing anything in a slip situation (most of the time not happening). That plus I turn it back on by pressing the little button anyway

Cheers Nigel :) Yea I wanted to give a good overview of the Cobb and how cool and easy it is to play with! Next week... ;)
Planet Rock! 🤘 Brilliant video dude. Great to see the full accessport process.
Cheers Elliot :) Plug this in here: facebook.com/InfernalCombust
@@AdamRainey Cheers dude, appreciate that 🤙
No worries :)
Great choice! I have also bought a Cobb AP for my RS, but from Stratified. Currently tuning it now. GL with the tuning 👍
Cheers mate :) The Cobb is great indeed and I am sure all the Cobb pro tuners are as good as each other like MSD and Stratified :)
Cheers ADAM. Keep those videos coming 👍👍
Will do Mark, cheers :)
Very interesting to hear about you picking MSD over Mountune due to the amount of Mountune parts on the car. Can't wait for next week's review to hear your thoughts on it👍
Cheers mate, yes indeed I thought I would throw a little curve ball! There are reasons tho which will be detailed next week :)
Great vid my dude
Thank you good sir :)
Its going to be a monster cheers steve 😀👍
It really is, cheers Steve! :)
i kinda got afraid when the car struggle like 2-3 seconds to start like yours lol but I'm gessing thats normal!? great video man!
It seems to be just getting things going initially, it was the same when I remapped my Fiesta ST back in the day, and then all is good :) Cheers!
Good vid mate, since then MSD have added two more slots valet mode and Immobiliser slots 4 and 5
the most important bit missing on vid, whats it drive like compared to Mountune 375!!😣😣
That is the followup vid coming next week! Otherwise this video would have been crazy long!
Adam Rainey we love long videos man
i used mountune for my mk2 rs and mk3 rs and running msd500 plus map is best one ive used on all my cars great company and great maps
Yes Adam!
Cheers Tom!
U need to add the driving after the mods ! 👍

Adam Rainey cool I can’t wait , love ur channel and the rs 👌
Cheers mate, it is live now! :)

Hi Adam do cobb do one for the focus ST 2018 M3 by the way boot lights are fantastic 👍🏿
Hi Clifton, yes indeed they do, they do accessports for many different vehicles. Cheers mate :)
Hi Adam. Could I down load a MSD map on my Mountune Cobb access port device ? Keep those videos coming mate. You have learned me such a lot
Hi Mark, unfortunately the Mountune version of the accessport doesn't let you add other tuner's maps as far as I know but you can still download the accessport manager software from Cobb and do updates in the same way. Cheers :)
You havent got a sports cat for stage 2
Which is needed for 400
Thats the biggest restriction I would not be driving it in 400 use 380 till downpie
MSD400 specifically doesn't need it but does for MSD420 which is why I havn't switched to it yet until I get the cat and exhaust on
I’m getting a catless down pipe from armytrix, how do I get a tune to optimize the down pipe? Helpppo
Hello, so you will either need to go to a tuner or you can do a similar type of tuning to me and contact MSD who will then get you to do data logging that you will email to them and then they will send a custom tune back
Nice work bro. Do u have a problem with the window washers dribbling on the bonnet after using them. It's driving me insane
Cheers :) Not sure mate, it is always raining in Northern Ireland lol
Great video Adam. What’s the cost of the handset and the maps chosen? Not sure it would be viable to change from my current Puma speed map. (Stage 2)

Hi Adam, my Ford Focus Rs is 2016. What is my refrigerant? The air con sticker? I can’t see it under bonnet. Let me know thanks
hi Dean, sent me a DM on instagram or FB and I can help you
Just dm’d you
Torquetronix won’t be happy ;)
lol who?
Nice video man , would like to know what Cobb is like compared to mountune
Cheers Tomos :) Compared to FPM375 or M400R/X ?
@@AdamRainey your 375 one pal :)
Check out my new video just released today ;)
@@AdamRainey just seen it now man fair play that launch looked rapid !!
Cheers mate :)
Can u use a mountune accesport and put cobb maps on?
Hey, unfortunately not as Mountune modify the software on the Accessport to stop you doing anything other than Mountune
@@AdamRainey thanks for reply.
If you don’t have an intercooler I wouldn’t run 420 till then tbh,,good choice of software tho I have it 👍
I have upgraded my intercooler... Also I'm not running 420 yet, I'm sticking to 400 for now
If i unplug the cobb unit, can i still change maps?
Yes, it is all flashed onto the ECU of the car so you don't need the accessport plugged in
@@AdamRainey i see. Thanks for the answer 👍
Why not the Mountune map
mesterwills money 💰 Well over priced
I will be doing a video next week where I discuss the reason why not Mountune :)
For what you get maybe lol
I went dreamscience.. it’s been fantastic! Take it on and off whenever you want also cheap and also very very fast now
I would say DS and MSD are likely quite similar :)
First
Top job Adam I'm still under warranty so I'll have to wait 😭
Cheers Lee! You can load the Ford map back on if you need to ;)
@@AdamRainey ok thanks for the info but m8 I'm still playing catch up lol I'm always 2 steps behind you AR 🖒
One step at a time Lee :)
Are you on a Mountune Cobb AP or a real Cobb AP???
My Cobb is what I would call a vanilla cobb, so as cobb intended. Not the fiddled with Mountune handset
@@AdamRainey So great, then a real ProTune can be done on your car. We in the US do this almost exclusively.
@@AdamRainey btw - I just did the Radium dual CC install and your videos helped a lot!
I hope this guy knows when you drive in track mode you have less traction which is mad dangerous
'this guy' knows exactly what the drive modes do which clearly you don't. You have the exact same amount of traction but less traction control, which would only be doing anything in a slip situation (most of the time not happening). That plus I turn it back on by pressing the little button anyway
Please disable your OBD port, it makes your car very stealable.
I will do at some point David :)
Adam Rainey the dummy obd Ports are really easy to do.
Adam Rainey the st-901 gps trackers are pretty good and only cost about £15 + about £1 a month on a giffgaff sim.
I like the sound of the tracker, cheers David
Adam Rainey there’s a nice little free app to help you setup and manage the ST901 - apps.apple.com/gb/app/st-gps-tracker/id1398995542
