Thanks, It should sound really good since the cherrybomb mufflers make the car sound like it has a big block in it. I need to figure out how to video tape it and get to post. Thats my assignment for the weekend!!

How does this warranty work? FRPP cams and a Bama Tune?

I came real close to putting cams in my GT500

 

Let us know how much extra hp you pick up with a new tune just with the cams. I am guessing another 30 hp

I picked up 40 HP with my stage 2 Comp cams, but they're awfully aggressive.

Typical gains from the Hot Rods that I've read have been 15-20 HP, depending on tune.

Hot Rod cams don't affect the warranty at all, as long as they're installed by a Ford dealer.

But how do you go about doing it? Do you have the dealer install the cams and you install the tune? I would think you would have to have the tune installed before they start the engine to check out the cams, right? So who installs the third party tune (Bama or Brenspeed, etc.), you or the dealer?

You do. If you have the dealer install the cams, they obviously have to get the car running, so they'll have to write a tune to get you out the door.

Once you're home, load whichever custom tune you want.

First thing like, I stated before this is the dealership that put me back into buying American cars !! I became friends with the owner who is 33yrs old and there everyday 800am sharp in a suit. He over see's everything that goes on in his dealership and meets every customer that buys a car. He keeps on top of the service and repairs and gets involved in any complaints. The service manager belongs to the same mustang club as me and owns a supercharged CS stang. Everything done to his car is ford racing and installed by his mechanics who are up on all the Tech. They did my gears now the cams which is from ford racing and the reason being that they will warranty ford parts even if they have to pay out themselves. As far as the tune which the service manager has one in his car you just return the the car to stock and thats it. I always carry my SCT with me in case something happens. MY headers that were installed also were BBK but, I know if a gasket blows down south he would call the nearest dealership to take of it or anything that goes wrong. Also he's family owns a chevy dealer and pontiac and GMC

In my book Sunshine Ford in #1 and I also get a loaner of my choice from enterprise and the dealership pays for it.

He also drives a 07 Shelby gt !!!!!

The goal of my rant is they stand behind there work and make you want to come back for service like every American dealership should do. If they acted like this one they wouldn't be in trouble !!! They gave me a little hope for American Cars.
