Next mods to warranty car?

I'm trying to decide on what to do next to my camaro ss. It's a 12 with a tune, (I can change back to stock) a CAI and exhaust. What's next?

With the the tune your warranty could be shot. It does not matter if you change it back to stock. The ECM will let them know it it been tuned or not. It depends on if GM wants the ECM results. With out the results the dealer will not get paid for the work.

Were you looking for performance, suspension or cosmetics?

What is your budget?

There are a lot of things for you to do.

+1 if you're currently tuned you don't have a leg to stand on IF they deny warranty work. The evidence to void warranty is there regardless of wether you pull in the dealership with the custom tune or the stock tune

To answer your question....supercharger

Lmao supercharger would be awesome! But my budget for now is short, I was looking into headers, or even possibly a decent cam for a dd. Stage 2?

Then apparently you aren't concerned with your warranty being voided. Headers (I believe) and a cam will certainly void your powertrain warranty.
