u kno, the funny thing is it's all kind at the discretion of the service guy at the moment.

i mean ____ like turbo kits, def out of question, but exhaust intakes, sometimes they say void the warranty and sometimes no.

If you must heavily depend on a warranty, then dont modify your car. Honestly, an intakes not going to void the warranty, but would you stop there? exhaust, then your header, then the pullys, etc. Its all up 2 you in the end = ]. Happy moding...

please search on this, I can't believe there are still people out there who think warranties can be voided unless they say up front "It will be voided if you do (this)" like TRD says for swapping out their pullies.

If you mod you car and blow up your engine, they aren't going to replace your engine because it would be your fault.

If you put an intake on the car, and your fuel injectors die, they can't really blame the intake (but they'll try damn hard to)

mod your car and be happy about it.
