parts will not void the warranty unless the dealer can prove that part caused the problem.

Basically, they cannot deny you warranty repairs unless they can PROVE that the aftermarket part caused the problem.

anything you want.
most people go for an intake or exhaust.
research around and you'll find lots of things you can do.
go to the parts section of the site and look at all the goodies out there...

Yea, unless the part you add is DIRECTLY responsible for a failure, it will still be covered.
