did you really buy it for the warranty?......................Its on them to prove your aftermarket part caused hte issue, that being said if I put a supercharger on then in that case anything in the drivetrain broken is on me. If my seatbelt craps out I dont think they can say the cai killed it

Have you checked with your dealer or a few around the area....many dealers wont void the warranty with a CAI/tune, some will. This mod is not going to really cause any problems either, it will change the feel of your car completely though. UDPs are a safe mod. Pretty much anything with changing the exhaust will be safe also. Some new wheels would be a big change also. You can lower the car with new springs to helps in the looks also. Many many options out there butt here are a few to start with. But see if you can work with the dealer and see how they feel about some things. If you are worried about the warranty and you do not think your dealer is mod friendly then you might want to stick with the appearance mods only. Good luck!

Just buy a tuner for your stock set up. You can fix alot of the drive-by-wire problems get a few more ponies and when you take it in you just reflash to stock. Very easy.

I would go to your dealer and go to the back and speak to a tech. Get friendly and perhaps throw him a few bucks. Works where I work.
