Exactly! You should've gotten a paper with your s/c that explains that any modification will void the warranty. (Pulley, intake, header, breathing on it too hard j/k on the last one, but you get the idea)

technically you could change the bpv and they wouldn't know unless you took it in with that bpv on. HOWEVER I am from the school of thought that if you modify and it gets messed up, then its on you to fix and the money to fix would come out of your pocket.

Well for one that is extremely messed up and why warranties are so harsh now, and two, you have to basically remove the supercharger to put a header on or take it off.
