It would be a tuning nightmare. Does that help?

legally by law they cannot void a warranty over an aftermarket part unless they can PROVE that the part in question caused the failure. don't let them say your parts did it unless they can prove to you how it caused the problem.

i have a wheel bearing problem and i'm dying to see what they have to say about my 2.4 mani, intake and catback. lol

i hope you took off the nitrous before you took it in. that should have been the first thing you did when you took it in.

any moron can PROVE n2o CAN cause premature engine failure, transmission issues, and as a result of pushing the engine harder, this can cause other parts to be pushed harder then they were 'designed' for..VOIDED

like i said, they do it everyday and its perfectly legal

if you mess with the drivetrain, any part of it, they can prove you were the cause of the failure. someone changed the tip on their exhaust, and ~20k miles later their transmission started slipping, they voided their 5yr/100,000mile drivetrain warranty because they installed a non-gm part by a non-gm technician, and it effected their drivetrain (they went on to claim the tip was not installed properly and caused more restriction on the exhaust, which caused the exhaust gases to flow in a way that is not designed, and it caused greater stress on the engine and transmission) Voided :wave


edit: i wasnt bashing Bob johnsons, they have some amazing techs/writiers/salesman there, but they do not like aftermarket at all and will void your warranty in a heartbeat to make a buck..and GM is aware of this, and agrees with what the dealership is doing
