I remember some of you had problems with the dealer not covering the car because of the stage kits.
Should I try to get them to put it in writing that it wont hurt the warranty? Just in case?

Chrysler policy indicates the Stage Kits are not warranted. They further specify that anything that breaks as a result of the Stage Kits will not be covered under warranty. Remember Chrysler is the manufacturer; however for the most part their warranty is administered by their dealer network. So it would not hurt to try to have the dealer commit to more than this; but that would be an agreement between you and the dealer. It would not obligate Chrysler to pay for any non-warranted repairs.
I personally wouldnt recommend installing any Stage Kit unless you are financially capable of, and mentally prepared to, pay for some repairs that may not be warranted. That isnt saying they wont be warranted but you just need to be prepared to deal with these on your own.
Here's a question I would like to ask the 'group'.
If the dealer installs a Stage I Turbo Kit at the time of your first oil change (3000 miles). Then, at the second oil change (6000 miles), the Autostick transmission needs to be replaced because a major torque converter failure; should Chrysler replace the transmission under their warranty?
Ill be interested in your comments.
