I feel for all you guys.I have a very modded car Stockum mtr,Crane ing.Hahn turbo and a lot more toys that was my biggest problem was giving up the warranty. That was 8000 miles ago now at 37,000 miles.I have had a couple egr codes that are now ironed out and a couple of missfire codes that I could care less about usually plug problems.Do I expect more problems yes I do!One thing I feel is that DC does watch these boards and when the majority of talk is about 1/4 mile times it gets them thinkin .If my car had a 7/70 warr. I would have never done the mods that I did Flashback and I talked about this at great lenghts. My car is a playtoy not a every day driver if it was I would have also thought twice about mods. OC Cruiser car is modded about like mine and his is a daily driver I think he has put about 40,000 miles since upgrades. You guys are DC test bed maybe at some point they might warr. upgrades but when they see everybody is racin and beatin on their cars maybe not. I have done the same upgrades as stage 2 I really dont think you will see problems with injectors and pcm but u might with some of those turbo toys like the sprayer.What bothers me is when u buy the upgrade and they log your serial number you lose your warranty in their eyes. lets hope they never come out with a national computer program that as soon as you thke your car in for service and they put your vin. into computer bells and whistles start goin off and the trap door opens and your gone to DC HE!!. I still would do it HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!
