congrats on the new purchase. alot of people feel that the car is slower after a bit but thats just yourself getting used to the power. i remember the first few times i got on it and it put me back in the seat.

Here's my input on the warranty, if you can afford a 28-32 thousand dollar car, who cares about the warranty. Generally, if you drive the car like normal (not getting on it all the time) you'll probably have no issues except for normal wear and tear.

For me, some of the mods I'm installing are probably more expensive than anything else that might go out anyway. Plus, after a 1300,00 mortgage, car payment, and all my other bills, with still plenty of money left over at the end of the month, I'm not worried about the money.

If you had an extra 600 dollars a month and you went and bought the car, you probably should be worried about voiding the warranty. So, if you don't have the extra money to fix things, don't mod! If you do, go for it!

Thanks
yes , but do it slow and research everything
an aftermarket boost gauge should be your first mod. the stock gauges suck
you will feel a difference after every mod. i know i did
