Will it void warranty on anything then, since nothing has been tuned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Prolly best to change it back to stock when going for a service, just in case they try to use it against you but) Cooler will require a tune.Plenum will require a tune.ANY exhaust mods will require a tune.

I have a new 50th coming at the end of the month with a 5 yr / 200 000km warranty. If I fit a genuine XR8 lower airbox and snorkle will my warranty be void . . . ?
