Default New Orleans

I'm currently in the market for a s/c and i was wondering if anyone knew of any reputable speed shops in the area? I've been looking at threads and manuals regarding what all is required but i would like to bring the info to a mechanic to make sure that i get everything that is required. I'm thinking that i'm gonna use this thread; https://mustangforums.com/m_3332042/tm.htm;but haven't decided if i'm gonna go with a used or new head unit. Any thoughts on new versus used?

I can't think of any. I don't know how good stanghi is, I only bought my XCal2 from him but it couldn't hurt to talk to him and see what he offers. Baton Rouge is what... an hour or so from N.O.? I know of people that drive acrossed the US to go to a good shop.

thanks, there is still much work to be done but it seems like the rest of the country thinks we don't even have power or running water, lol. I'm not referring to you, but I've heard it from various other people.
