Ford Performance Tune install in California?

[ChrisH]

I recently heard that the Ford Performance Tune is now legal in California but it will void your warranty unless installed by a Ford Certified Technician.

But I am unable to find any dealership willing to install it. I am looking for technicians but none specifically state they are certified by Ford so I can keep my warranty.

Does anybody know where I can get it installed in the Orange County area or somewhere near?

Is there a list of dealers that will do it? I’m in northern CA.

Is it possible the dealers are reluctant thinking it was not CARB approved? That just happened so maybe enlighten them.

installable by Ford service tech or ASE certified tech to keep warranty

many more of the latter available.

I did mention to two dealerships that it is approved for use in California but they said they wont install anything performance related.

Is there a list of places that have ASE certified techs? I have been searching on google and haven't found any local shops that mention that have ASE certified techs.

If you're open to driving, Galpin Autosports (GAS) has experience installing the tune. There's a Denny's across the street to have a meal while you wait, or you can hang out in their showroom.

Customers with built Bronco's and Raptors are in and out of there all day long, and it's where I take my Bronco for suspension work, upgrades, etc.

I'll try to visit a few local repair shops and ask them in person if they have someone ASE certified.

I tried this and it shows no shops on the map besides a few fleet maintenance places which aren't open to public. I appreciate the help though

Expand the search past the default 10 miles. At 50 miles, it shows 6 open to the public. 5 of them even have direct links to their websites.

That's nice of you.
You have more patience than I do.
