I've recommended friends who haven't had any problems so far. Time will tell if they get more stricter but so far so good.
What exhaust do you have? I didn't see any in your sig...

They should do it. I never had a problem. Last year I got a new wing and 4 new Brembo calipers and I have pretty much everything people run with stock turbos on pump. It just depends on the dealer but if you bought the car there they should take care of you. What do you have to lose?

I just had my 35k service done as part of my 45k-mile free warranty. It was supposed to only last 3 years, but it's been 3.5 years, and they said I could finish out my next 2 services.

A couple of tidbits to know are that my mileage is only at 28k, and my car has been visibly modified for about 2.5 of those years.

+1 for Boostin4g63. Unless you have one more service left or they are doing it for free, its time to get dirty and DIY.

I have the Mitsu maint program and have had no problems getting the service done for free. Of course once it runs out, I'm doing it myself to save money.

They very well may void your warranty, blacklist you, or write down in Mitsubishi's database that your car is modded. Then when your motor blows, they will look at the records and say sorry your car was modded a year ago, say your not under warranty and your SOL.

But again to answer your original question, they will always service your car.

Just do it yourself or go to an independent/local shop
