Can he actually try and say something to me? I mean I did plenty of reading but they cant try and go extreme and void my warranty or anything can they? Just made me a bit curious.

I don't think running straight pipes can void a warranty.. I know Adam did it with his headers and his warranty is still good..

I can relate. Well more like my brother can, he lucked out while being stupid and sort of racing this other camaro. By lucked out I mainly mean he didnt get arrested or have the car impounded(my dads camaro, with a disabled Vet license plate) for going like 90 in a 45....That was indeed a nice set of fines and of course a suspension of his license. Eh, hes learned pretty well since then.

Exactly.. They can't really be like we can't fix your blown speaker because of your straight pipes lol.

They wouldnt actually fix that anyways would they? Even if they were the stock ones. I was talking about that earlier today actually, the whole bumber to bumper warranty. thats just regarding mechanical parts not related to the engine then right? like my window's motors or something.

Ha yea I showed him the HID conversion kit and LEDs i put in but yea this was one of the older guys, the young guy that sold me the car from them was way more cool and interested.

I'm lucky - my dealer is very mod friendly. Never got any heat at all from them. I've had tons of warranty work done too - and more to come...

Hmm.. Not really sure. You can always ask. Like I have an aftermarket exhaust and now my car throwing a code so I just went to autozone to have it hooked up to the thing that tells you what it is and it's something like an Oxygen something or other lol. Well It's an easy fix so my BF can do it, but since it's not stock it's not covered under warranty anyways.
