S/C install

Richard_97222 · November 24th, 2007, 04:27 PM

How hard is it to install the fords whipple S/C on a 05-08 Mustang GT compared to the Procharger and/or Paxton. Seems pretty easy unless you have to cut or trim parts. If some one were to take thier car in for the install, what would be the labor cost on something like this? (either kits)

I have the money saved up to buy either s/c kit (complete) Just not sure if I wanted to try doing the install..Mechanically I think I would be ok....The vioded warranty for self installers, maybe not...Doesn't ford cover the Ford s/c (400hp) with the same waranty period as the factory if its installed by the dealership?

I was thinking the 400HP kit for now..then after I get a few miles I would upgrade to the 500HP upgrade kit (after my factory warranty runs out) since ford doesnt cover as long with the higher HP kit. I'm still undecided on which kit to get...

Advice?

Just get the 500hp from the get go. There are plenty of people running the Whipple without any problems, and the only way they can not honor the warrant is if they can prove the supercharger broke it. But I think it wouldn't be super hard.
