Can anyone recommend a shop for Whipple install with OPG, CS and damper at the same time. Got a quote from a local Ford dealership with years of experience installing Whipple and Roush. "Around $3000."

I ended up installing myself, but I did research some shops up north. The following seemed to get great reviews:

1) EFI Powerhouse in Santa Clara
2) Advanced Auto Electric in San Ramon

Thank you both. I'll start with these. No better advertisement, than by word of mouth. Been burned by dealerships before and a bit reluctant to go back. Wanted to see if price was competitive, so I'll make some phone calls. Thanks again.

I haven't had experience with Advance Engine Development (AED) yet, but plan to have my car dyno and tuned there in the near future. I did call them and they seem professional. They also worked on a lot of Mustangs and one of their guys got a 2016 himself. He ended up pulling the motor out and check the rings for break-in period and threw it on the dyno. They do engine rebuild along with everything else Mustang related. I can't say much about a Whipple install, but they may be worth a call.

Thanks Mootang. I'll give them a call. Have no idea how much this should cost, so never hurts to get several quotes from shops.

I agree! It would be a fun road trip. Doesn't say they provide shop/install services on their website, but I think I'll call tomorrow.

Fresno is not that bad, I used to work down there. Some of the greatest coworkers were there, but family was here in Sac, so I have to come back. I still go down there every once in a blue moon, but wished I knew it was in Fresno before I went with a blower.
