LAS VEGAS, Nev., Nov. 1, 2011 – Ford’s industry-first TracKey, which allows Mustang Boss 302 owners to choose between street or track powertrain calibrations by simply selecting a key, is now available for purchase at Ford dealers nationwide, Ford announced today at the SEMA Show.
Developed by a team of Ford engineers, TracKey is an aftermarket high performance calibration – emissions-legal in all 50 states – that adds a second set of powertrain control module (PCM) software to a customer’s Mustang Boss 302 or Laguna Seca, activated by a specially programmed vehicle key. When invoked by TracKey, the new software alters more than 600 engine management parameters, increasing low-end torque and turning the potent but well-mannered stock Boss into track-ready car. Remove TracKey and start the Boss with the standard key, and all factory engine settings are restored for a comfortable drive home from the course.
