Looking for reputable shops to get work done (intercooler, springs and sway bar install) in South Florida. Steeda is nearby and I trust the brand reputation, but I may be using other parts not sold by them, so not sure if that is an issue for them. Thanks for any suggestions.

@Kevincpf a few places to try and inquire. Call one of the places and ask if they have any preferred partners.

(Lethal Performance, Palm Beach Dyno, i95 Motosports). Can't remember the name but there's a place right next door to Palm Beach Dyno that does alot of mod/installs for Explorer ST

Next door to PB Dyno, they used to be called RareFab, changed their name to RSA. They installed whipple and AFE in my 21 ST. Nice people

Thank you. I got a quote from them as well. They seem a bit high on the labor, but waiting to see what quotes I get from PB Dyno and Steeda also.

Anyone worked with MAK Performance Hialeah, FL? I got a good price on the spring ($425) and intercooler ($850) install from them, but does not include alignment. I have to go elsewhere to get it aligned afterwards. Waiting on the springs still from Lethal, but got an update today on those. They are about 4 weeks out +/-.

Hey @Kevincpf any updates? Did you finally get mods installed? I'm also waiting for LP springs still waiting on the new 2nd Gen springs to become available.

Lethal got back to me today and said they should have the new batch on springs in stock by the end of next week. Once received I am getting the CVF intercooler and springs installed.

Dang! I just put in an order for the newly revised springs a few days because I was told they already had them in stock. Apparently, it will be another 2 weeks before i get them on hand.
I am hoping for sooner, but I am thinking I should have them by 9/6 as I am only about 30 miles away from them.

Mine arrived yesterday as well. I am shooting for early next week for install along with the intercooler. I have to go to another shop for alignment, but just leaving one shop and going straight to the other to get aligned. Putting my order for the tune in today and hoping to data log late next week or first week in Sept.

Just spoke with Steeda in Pompano for install of the Ford Performance Tune, they are closing the service center next week for good after 35 years.

Hi, New to the group and was wondering if you ended up using this place? Im trying to find a trusted spot in S FL to install a few bolt ons.
