Well as it stands I have a JB4 and a charge pipe for the car. May get a downpipe in a few months. For an oil change and topping the fluids they really shouldn't be rooting around the car. I'll be taking the JB4 off the car when I take it in anyways, because it is pretty quick to unhook the harness.

And no I do not think they'll "forget" but the chances of them noticing mods are less likely if they are doing say an oil change or topping off fluids/doing routine maintenance as opposed to them having to warranty out new parts for something that blew or messed up. And technically they shouldn't be voiding my warranty because I have a mod. It should only void if something goes wrong with the car that could be attributed to the mod, but I know that dealerships will do whatever they can to screw you over. "Oh you put on a charge pipe and your radio stopped working? Well, the charge pipe obviously caused the radio to go out, so we are voiding the warranty." Sucks because I know there are some dealerships out there with cool SA's. That are at least honest enough to look at an issue and know that it wasn't caused by the mod and fix it.
