Warrenty

my clutch started slipping a while back and is getting worse and worse. the only mods i got is hks rs intake, hks carbon ti exhaust, lowering springs, rearsway bar, and a boost contoller. i was wandering if the dealership would void warrenty if i have these mods, epecailly the boost controller. should i take out the boost controller then go to them or just go to the dealership the way the car is?

Chances are even if the car is bone stock they will not replace the clutch. I think the warranty book says 1200 miles

Yeah, the clutch isn't warrantied unless you have less than 12k miles and they can prove that the clutch had defective hardware, but not if it was just worn down from abuse or poor driving.

Just FYI, the word is "warranty." For future possible warranty work, I'd put the intake and boost both back to stock just to be safe. Remember, though, that they will void almost everything if they know you have any form of suspension mod. People should think twice about just adding lowering springs if they are interested in their warranty. Springs are supposed to be added for handling performance reasons, not just to lower the car.
