This is a subject that I have given a lot of thought too. My dealership has been very on board with all the mods I have done to my car and they have even suggested FI. They assured me that if I go with a turbo...I will have no warranty issues because it is a bolt-on.
We have also discussed the SC route to the extent that my dealership researched and found a local mod shop that was willing to install a SC on my V6 and warranty it for three years. My dealership said that if I used that mod shop to install a SC...they would still honor my full extended warranty.
But the biggest problem to me is that I don't want to experiment with my car. It seems like a lot of money to pay to have my engine blown. There hasn't been enough success in this area with the V6 for me to feel comfortable taking the plunge yet. I've only heard of two other V6ers that have even tried to install a turbo...and last time I checked...the project budget had doubled and neither one had been completed yet. So that makes me nervous.
A lot of horsepower can be fun...I know...I have a GT-500 with 718rwhp...but it can also be very dangerous. I bought the Camaro because it handles so much better and makes me feel super safe. But add on another 100-150 hp and I'm not so sure that would still be the case.
