I was thinking of getting this StageI tune myself. Has anyone who's done it had any probs with warranty if they took it back to the dealership for some sort of repair?
I could take of the exhaust and cat and bolt the origs back on before I did, but I'm worried about the ECU, Solenoid, and down pipe.

I wanted to get a Buschur Stage I kit, but the more I think about eventual smog and having to put everything back to stock, and the way west coast law enforcement has been getting more aggressive about modded vehicles, I might just get a tune from Shiv and leave the car that way...

I would go through the car and replace the simple things before adding any mods. Hoses, clamps, vac lines, IC hoses and all the IC clamps. I have the Vishnu V550 kit plus some other things and the only complaint I have other than the turbo exploding after 1k miles is.. They upgrade everything to make the power but don't upgrade the things that have to old all the power. So unless you want to be parked at a gas station at 11:30 at night explaining to a guy in an M3 why you are putting a clamp back on and why there is antifreeze leaking everywhere and a wierd whooshing leak coming from your IC piping.

Hey guys, newbie here from Wisconsin I just purchased a 06' IX SE, 5 miles on her. Love the car, best one I've driven so far. I had a question about the Vishnu v400 package for the IX's. Does anyone have it on their IX and if so, how do you like it...pros/cons? I'll be waiting until it has at least 1000 miles on it before doing anything with it but it seems like the Vishnu stage is the way to go. I can't seem to find any videos or sounds clips of the IX with that package. Vishnu's tech told me that the exhaust had a deep but not too loud sound. Any comments would be appreciated!!!
