Default modding/warrenty

Would putting different gears in the car void the entire warrenty?!

If you have a warranty issue and if they can point to the mod and say it caused it then yes. How agressive they will be with this depends on the dealership. However, you'll need to adjust the tune for the new gears so maybe you should get a cost from the dealer to do the work. You can feel them out about there policies on mods at the same time. Just a thought.

Then agian I was way past being able to get any warranty work by the end of the first month I had my car. So I really didn't give it much thought. I just figure if something breaks it's an excuse to upgrade!

I wouldn't see any reason to even tell them it has gears, unless it's them that break which is on your dime anyway...
