Which dealer in Chicago area is mod friendly?

So yea like the title says which dealer should i go to for aftermarket clutch install. I been told $950 from one dealer and the reason i want to go to Mitsu is that i can still keep my warranty on transmission and such as.

Thanks

$950 just to install the clutch??? bro...... Call Adam at Devo Tuning. Easy to work, does a good job, and good guy! I'm not going crazy with my car and I got an Exedy Stage 2 + install for just over a grand...

08 GSR meaning EVO X?? You already need a new clutch? ....

An aftermarket clutch, no matter who installs it, is going to result in a denied warranty claim if you break an axle, t-case, rearend, etc.

No dealership is going to give you any assurances on the matter in writing.

Mitsu dealers are the absolute worst for any kind of warranty work. Even if the problem you have is not related to any of the mods or driving style they think you do.

Eh, I think subaru dealers are the worst but either way when you mod you're rolling the dice. You may come out OK, or you may not. Best to plan for the worst if you decide to modify.

Your not making any sense. Just get it installed by a shop and call it a day.

Like already stated Take it to Devo for the clutch install which I believe cost $475ish
950 for a clutch install from a dealer? your getting robbed if you pay that and why even have a dealership do it?
