As for the intake voiding the warranty. Nothing can "void" your warranty, however if they can attribute the warranty claim to an aftermarket part then they do not need to cover the damage under your warranty. For instance, if you are driving along and you hit a puddle, suck in water through your aftermarket air intake, and the engine hydrolocks putting a rod through the block. Guess what? It's not covered. If you are driving along and your stereo stops working, it should be covered as the intake doesn't have anything to do with the stereo. this happend to me.... i drove through deep water because i didnt have a choice the police were telling us to go that way because of flash flooding. anyways, so i went through and the car died in the middle.... i took it in the next morning cause it had a check engine light on and they said it was hydro locked.. total loss, but then my insurance guy came out and even though it failed compression tests he said it was fine.. i got the car back and boom one day im driving and the car burst in flames... scary scary... but i dont know who your warranty is with.. but i do know that if you modify anything performance wise that has to do with your engine or your computer they will void your warranty..to much liability

Also it wouldn't be fair to the other owners if you modified your car and then the manufacturer warrantied your claim. -mike
