I just received my new CAI and Vitesse throttle controller and can't wait to put them on. Only issue is that I am taking my car in to the dealer for warranty work next Monday. Should I wait till I get it back and put the stuff on or will they give me crap about having it on there? It's a vert so it's going in for the famed 5th bow fix so it has nothing to do with motor work. Thanks in advance.

Should not matter at all.
When I was looking at used Camaro's and Challenger's, many of them had CAI's on them and the dealer had no issue with that in regard to any promises of continued warranty.

Since it's only a week though, if you feel uneasy at all, just wait till it is done.

no harm in waiting a few days.

I agree, you'd probably be fine installing them now but since it's only a week or so I'd just hold off. Better to be safe than sorry.

The throttle controller will void your warranty, they wont care about your CAI.
