Ok im new to the brand new car thing. So if i get intake and exhuast will this void my warranty. I know the GM stages doesnt has long as GM dealer installs them.

"Q. Does installing an aftermarket part, automatically void my vehicle factory warranty? A. NO, According to the Magnusson-Moss Act of 1975 (see below):

The Magnusson-Moss Warranty - Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act of 1975 protects consumers from such fradulent activity by new car dealers. Under this Act, aftermarket equipment that improves performance does not void a vehicle manufacturer's orginial warranty, unless the warranty clearly states the addition of aftermarket equipment automatically voids your vehicle's warrany or if it can be proven that the aftermarket device is the direct cause of the failure. The easiest way to check this is to look in your owner's manual under, "what is not covered". Under Magnusson-Moss Act a dealer must prove, not just vocalize, that aftermarket equipment caused the need for repairs before they can deny warranty coverage. If they cannot prove such claim-or offer an explanation- it is your legal right to demand compliance with the warranty. The Federal Trade Commission (202.326.3128) administers the Magnusson-Moss Act and monitors compliance with warranty law. "

in short yes and no... the dealer has to prove that the part in question caused a failure (if there is one). but what it comes down to is what your dealer says basically goes. i'd check with them if you're that worried about it. but most places will not void for simple things like intakes and exhausts. unless of course your cai causes you to suck up water and hydrolock the engine.

search on google for magnusson moss act to learn more about it and how it protects you. just remember, any legal battle with a giant corporation like gm or even a dealership will be extremely hard to win since they have $$$ for lawyers.

Thanx I have never heard of Magnusson-Moss Act

no problem, most people haven't.

It's a shame, too. SOOO important to know your rights as a consumer, especially when dealing with a product that cost you thousands of dollars.

that is very true, joe

According to the owner's manual, the break-in period for our cars is 500 miles. Longest 500 miles of my life. :D

imho, get an aem cai. the dryflow filter is like a godsend for our cars and the sensitive maf sensors. those oil filters air tricky and will set a cel if oil gets on the maf.

HAHAHA man i read this after i order my Injen CAI lol. Can u buy just the filter. ill just sell the injen filter if i could lol.
