Dealers in New England who have installed the Ford Performance Tune

[GTTom]

I can't say for sure but give McFarland Ford in Rochester, NH a call. They are a certified Shelby dealer and install all sorts of performance parts.

Thanks! I'll keep them in mind. Most of the ones mentioned here are about an hour to 1-1/2 hours away. Was hoping some local Ford dealers had some experience. I may just make the time to sit down and call around. When it comes down to it I don't mind driving a bit to get it done right.

Looking for a dealership to install the tune around the Boston area but have yet to find one that can do it. So far, 0/3 on local ford dealerships. If anyone knows anyone around the Boston area that has gotten a tune please let me know!

Anyone else have the performance tune at a NH/MA Ford dealer lately? I just bought the ProCal unit for Lethal Performance at their Black Friday sale price. I asked Best Ford in Nashua NH and the service writer said they don't do them because their internet is really slow and the have trouble down loading the tune.

Internet is slow.... i've heard it all

UPDATE! I called around to find a dealer and ended up going to McFarland Ford in Exeter NH. This location was a hour drive which was closer to me than their Rochester NH location. I setup my Ford Performance account in advance using a temporary password that the dealership could use and downloaded the performance tune to the ProCal before I went to the dealership. They charged me $255 so about an hour and a half labor. I used some Ford Pass points toward it so it wasn’t too bad.

It looks like Gervais Ford in Ayer MA mentioned earlier and McFarland Ford in Exeter NH are both about an hour drive from Boston depending on where in the Boston area you live.

Bump.

Anyone have any luck with RI Dealers? Bowens seems like a decent option but looks like they’re about $100 more than others.

@The Deal I'm going to reach out to Lamoreaux in East Brookfield since they've already done a couple for others at a reasonable price. Plus it gives me an excuse to stop at Tree House Brewing on the way home!

Confirmed that Lamoreaux will not do it ..said they aren't familiar enough with it.

Bowens Garage in Eastford CT did mine. In and out in about an hour and everything went smoothly.

I confirmed with Bowen’s Garage in Eastford, CT and they will do the tune …no problem. Said they’ve already done about 25 of them. Thanks to the other poster who mentioned them!

How much do they charge?

I'm bringing it in June 7th so I'll let you know for sure. But it's going to be about 1.5 -hours in labor so I'm figuring $200-300. Which is fine in my book, since they're the only Ford Dealer willing to perform the install in my general vicinity.

Based on a few years history on this site alone - I'd lean towards Bowen's, they are attached to a performance shop as well.

I’m surprised about Bowens Garage doing so many ProCal installations. That’s a tiny dealership there.

I had the Tune done at Bowen's Garage this morning -I was in and out of there in an hour, which included an oil change and 5-tire rotation. They were great and it's a pretty cool time warp of a showroom -well worth the ride to check out anyway! Anyone considering the tune in the Central Mass./CT/RI area shouldn't hesitate to have it done here. And they won't screw you over on the labor! Everyone's mileage may differ, but I'll say the Tune was under $200 for me.

Yeah for sure ...the lot is 75% performance vehicles.
