Drivetrain warranty and mods
#1
If this has already been touched on sorry.
I will be getting a MCS soon (hopefully sooner) and am planning on the magnaflow exhaust, madness intake, and madness swaybar. What I want to know is if any of these will void the warranty, because I work at burger king and am going to FSU in the fall so I wont be able to afford maintenance. I was also wondering about the pulley mod having read Randy's quickie, will it effect the warranty. Thanks in advance.

If i remember correctly - all of your wanted mods are fine with warranty, except the pulley, which is a royal pain in the a$$ to change from the looks of it, and yes, the pulley will most likely void the warranty out. If you say for instance blow an engine and try to take it in with that aftermarket pulley on it, i would think the service department would turn you away, but everything else you listed is relatively safe.

Hey bk!
Welcome to MCO!
The pulley will most certainly void the engine part of the warranty. Things like windows, sunroofs, brakes, etc. would not be affected (is that the right use of affect - or is it effect ??? - that might start an off-topic post though).
Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. You should be able to find information on this topic using the search function - the small yellow one, not the big one.

>>What exactly does a rear sway bar do??? I have noticed that quite a lot of people have had this modified.
