MUSTANG 2018-2022 GT CORTEX EBC Specific Instructions
WIRING
RPM and vehicle speed signals are required for boost by gear applications. Because the 2018-2022 Mustang does not have a vehicle speed signal that can be connected directly to the Cortex EBC a CB-2 CAN Bus Interface is required for installation. The CB-2 CAN Interface generates both RPM and vehicle speed signals for the Cortex EBC.
The CB-2 CAN Interface can be connected to the CAN system at the OBD2 Port / Data Link Connector (DLC) module, which is below the dash on the driver side of the vehicle.
DLC MODULE LOCATION
On the back of the DLC module there is a wiring connector that contains the required CAN signals for the CB-2 CAN Interface. The CB-2 should be connected to the DLC module as outlined in the following table.
CB-2 TO DLC CONNECTIONS
