However, there's always that one in a thousand chance and I'd rather not risk it. With a CAI, it's not that hard to switch back to stock if you got bring it in.
The problem is that getting GM to actually cover something with the warranty is nearly impossible. It would have to be a major engine or trans failure, and even then, who knows. There are plenty of horror stories out there. If that did happen I'd switch it back to stock, but I'm not going to do it every time I need basic maintenance. Thats silly. I have a catch can too. so should I uninstall that every time as well? What about the intake spacer I will purchase this spring? There is a point where you have to realize that you either mod or don't mod. You cant really do both.
