Some people are comfortable modding with a warranty and some aren't. Mods cannot void the entire warranty (by law). But warranty work can be denied if the mod caused or could have caused the problem. So if you increase the horsepower, and the dealer or warranty company knows you did, your warranty might not cover anything on the engine or transmission.
I was at the track with a pulley on at about 3k miles. Some new car owners here were at the track modded with 300 miles. But I try to do most of the work on my car myself and aviod taking my car to the dealer at all costs. |

There is a "few" good parts stores around here. Most will "think" they're smarter than a girl and talk down at you and tell you you either dont need something or talk you into something totally different.
