Bolt-ons + Stage Kit?

alright i know we are all tired of the stage kit but i have a question. so i am for sure getting the gm stage kit when it comes out but i was wondering if i could do a few bolt ons before the gm tune for the few extra ponies? would i still be able to get the stage kit if i have bolt ons and keep the warrenty? i was thinking charging pipes and catback since they might provide an intake.

Sounds like a good idea... You should be able to. They really can't void your full warranty if you have a catback, or a DP. Just the exhaust portion of your wannaty might be denied.

I say do it!

you wouldnt be wrong. The thing is, i dont think it would be worth it. YOu wouldn't feel the extra ponies at all due to the learn down system in the LNF. Hopefuly (ive heard more yes than no's) the stage kit will take this unwanted feature off and allow you to continue modding like everyone else. If you just dont give a **** (like most LNF owners) then get a tune, that will take off the learn down feature and give you more than an extra few ponies.

The catback is no problem, but the downpipe could be grounds for voiding the warranty.
