We are thrilled to announce that Accessport tuning, bolt-on power upgrades, and Accesstuner Pro custom tuning support are now available for Ford’s 3.5L EcoBoost powered F-150 and Tremor trucks. The updated F-150 still uses a 3.5L Twin-Turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine, and with some minor tweaks from Ford, the newer trucks can now generate a bit more power. This launch of 2021-2022 Ford F-150 tuning includes a 50-State Legal Accessport and Off The Shelf (OTS) maps, as well as Accesstuner Pro for custom tuning by any authorized Protuners. During development, we also discovered the need for an all-new product, our Intake Snorkel Bracket, which is incredibly valuable to any modern EcoBoost powered F-150.
Accessport for 2021-2022 Ford F-150 EcoBoost/Tremor
The Accessport is the world’s best selling, most flexible, and easiest to use ECU tuning solution for your 3.5L EcoBoost powered 2021-2022 Ford F-150 and Tremor. It allows you to increase power by replacing conservative factory settings with more aggressive calibrations, and more! The Accessport has a large, full color, high-resolution screen that enables you to monitor up to six parameters in real-time. It is fully customizable from the look (optional bezel colors), layout (set up race, street, or dyno gauge clusters), and mounting options (choose from 1,000s of standard vehicle mounts). Both Engine and Transmission tuning are supported in one part number, the AP3-FOR-011. The ECU Maps below are available in two flavors each, one for 91 octane fuel and one for 93 octane fuel.

Transmission Tuning
One significant change in the ECU/TCM configuration in newer Ford vehicles is that they are now a combined unit. A benefit of this is that the Accessport only needs to install onto one module instead of two, making installation and map change time much quicker. However, map selection during install may be a bit different as each ECU Performance map can be flashed in conjunction with any of the available TCM maps.

COBB Custom Features
COBB Custom Features: Dynamic Pedal Control
Dynamic Pedal Control allows you to quickly adjust throttle pedal sensitivity. The system works by modulating the throttle mapping found in your current drive mode (i.e. Drive/Normal, Mud/Sand, Sport) and some predetermined maximum and minimum sensitivity levels. Each step negative (-1 – -5) decreases throttle sensitivity which can help achieve better mpg, or a quick detune if someone less responsible is driving. When stepping positive (1-10), you’ll be making smaller pedal movements have a much more profound impact on the throttle, which can help the car feel faster and more responsive.
COBB Custom Features: Tire Size Adjustment
Tire Sized Adjustment does just what it seems it would. This feature allows those with up-sized tires to apply a correction to the truck’s ECU and TCM to ensure accurate behavior and speed display.
Intake Scoop Bracket, aka ‘Torq Snork’
Introducing the COBB Intake Bracket, known internally as the “Torq-Snork”. This brace uses two pieces to sandwich the soft plastic snorkel to the core support, replacing the fragile plastic clips with hardware and preventing all deformation under load. All you need is a flathead screwdriver to pop the old clips out and the provided Allen key to secure the hardware. We can frequently achieve reliable power and torque gains over the stock calibration without installing any physical modifications, but when developing our performance calibrations for the newer 3.5L F-150s, we noticed some interesting issues with the intake system after only adding a small amount of power.
The leading edge of the snorkel that rises from the lower airbox to overtop of the radiator core support is constructed of very soft, very thin rubber. Making things worse, a significant portion of the cross-sectional area of this piece seals against the hood of the truck, making the actual airflow path pretty thin. This system works okay in factory form, but when turning up the boost, we’ve seen it turn into a big problem and collapse under vacuum. In the dyno graph below, you can
