If ur cars got a hick up or spit at idle, crusin, or wide open then change them.
If they were cheap copper plugs, id change them for a piece of mind.

And what A/F are you talking about? idle or wide open?
plugs are fine, but its time to change them anyways. and im talkin about both WOT and idle. idle is when i noticed it more though seems to be running way lean

Do have a wideband or narrowband O2 gauge? If its a narrowband, don't even bother looking at it. Those blinky-light-show Air/Fuel gauges don't tell you crap.

You should of flashed it back to stock before you took it in, but the warranty is a joke anyways. They tend not to honor the warranty regardless if you are stock or not, so you might as well modify the hell out of it now!

Go home, get your ratchet/socket set out and tighten all of the worm clamps up real good and you will be done with it...

You don't need to run out and get T-bolt clamps unless you are running some serious boost on meth or race gas...
use T-bolt clamps regardless if your at stock boost or not...its always a for sure answer that those stock hoses that flex under boost will not pop off if it has t-bolt clamps on them!!
