It has to be installed by someone certified or you lose your warranty. Same thing with the CAI.

Assuming that it gets installed by a "pro", how does Ford ESP view these kits? Will they still remain warranty compliant or is it only from the original Ford warranty?
I have right at a year left on 3/36 and am debating whether to add the ESP or not
*currently slogging through that giant thread in bolt on mods subforum but havent seen it addressed yet.

so I see where it specifically mentions it will not void new vehicle warranty but it does not address the ESP. I guess that maybe is the answer, ESP might have issues? Or is ESP considered the same as new vehicle warranty?

The dealer was fine with me installing the intake myself. I took my laptop to the car, hooked it up, got the account and the software and downloaded the calibration file.
Took all of it to the dealer and they just put it on a battery charger and clicked the "program" button and babysat it. It took them a few tries because the program quits if the battery goes below 12V. I got charged one hour of labor for it.

Yes really.
Exactly.
Well Ford has final say in warranty claims, not the dealer.;)

I'm expecting my kit tomorrow. I've already arranged with an ASE certified mechanic that I will do the work while he babysits the operation. As long as your paperwork is in order the warranty will be no problem.

Whats your point? The dealer signed off on it being installed. Last I knew Ford didn't have a time machine to go back and see whos hands were on the part.

I installed my own with FP Intake and Tune. I have had no issues from FP or my dealer. I used my MacBook with the ProCal app to install it. It's very easy if you can operate a computer.

Well yeah they dont care if u do it yourself, you just cant register for the warranty and if anything goes wrong u can be potentially screwed from both places. FP does not just take your word that a shop installed it, you need actual documentation and send it to them right when u have a shop do the installation. Of course its super easy to do ourselves, but for warranty purposes a shop has to do it sadly.

Thanks for the info.
I got all installed at a ASE shop and I am not lost in how to submit the paperwork to Ford. If you know how and what I have to sent, I appreciate it.
Ps: I got the receipt from the shop, stating what was done and I got the ASE shop #. I took one step further, and took a picture of the ASE certification.
