So say you have a Camaro with 9000 miles on it and you have been given an great deal to purchase a full American Racing Exhaust system for less then a third of the actual cost new (its a year old)!!! Would you purchase/install the new system, foregoing the remaining portion of your warranty as the long tubes headers would require a tune. Or would you pass on the deal putting the warranty ahead of any major modifications until the warranty period has passed..

I guess the other option would be to procure and wait to install the system until the warranty is over.. Even though the Camaro is a 2011 and has only 9,000 miles!!!!

Oh I guess I should also state that I reside in CALIFORNIA...... lol

You could install it without a tune.

If your going to put lt headers on, then you might as well get a tune.

Ya, A lot of people say F the warranty, but the question is, if something happens can you afford to repair the car yourself?
