Warranty Question (performance gauges)

So I am wanting to buy some gauges. I am gonna get the Glowshift gauge pack.

http://www.glowshiftdirect.com/02-07...gepackage.aspx


Does anyone know if I call and ask will they say yes it will void my warranty. if i dont buy the stupid damn SPT ones. I know it probably will but does anyone work for a dealership that know.

I really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance

the only way any mod can void the warranty is if SOA can prove said mod caused said warranty issue.

4urabus I know you have told me this before. I didnt know you were a service consultant.

SO if i got my glow shift gauges and i took them into subaru...unless those gauges could prove to be the reason my engine failed they cant ding me. But lets say i get a boost gauge and something with the oil happens and my engines seizes up (far fetched i know just roll with me) They say it was because i messed with the turbo air line and do to over boost i caused the problem even though the boost was never adjusted.

So even though that wasnt the root causeIs this something that may have a possibility of happening, them saying that and voiding the warranty and me getting screwed or is there no chance of that happening.

so the dealership has basically been filling my head full of ****. it was the dealership that says no one else can service my car except them. So basically i just have to have a subaru oil filter on there and keep track of when i have oil changes?
