I'm thinking about putting a performance chip in my new 1LE does anyone have any suggestions. I also heard that the cars ECM can tell if I change out chips therefore affecting the warranty

All you need is a tuner. Either changing the chip or tuning will void the warranty.

So you either want to tune the car OR you want to keep the warranty.

CAI first, it wont void your warranty. Anything that modify the stock ECM will void warranty, unless your dealer has big balls.
