FI warranty
 
Now I know adding FI to a car voids your warranty but is there any FI available to this platform that either toyota or subaru wouldnt care being added to the car? I'd rather not get TRD's SC as based on their past, it is overpriced for the gains provided. I know on occasion some companies will work w/ the dealers and offer services that wont touch the warranty.

so is there any option for ppl that want to keep their warranty but still get FI or am i boned?

No. You are boned.

jadewbj 11-02-2012 05:29 PM

You are boned unless you get the TRD. No way will they keep your warranty with any other FI kit. Simple bolt ons you can usually get away with, FI no way.

What about vortech??? Don't know how much it is, but for those wanting warranties.

Unless its made by the vehicles manufacturer then no, no warranty.

Spray it, and get rid of the bottle and lines when you bring it in. Then hook it back up.

That is a warranty for the system, the OP is asking for the manufacturer's warranty on the car.

Not TRD=void warranty

Blue86 11-03-2012 05:27 AM

get the easiest to install S/C kit (vortech perhaps), then if shit happens.... remove carefully, put everything back to stock, reflash to stock and hope for the best :-)

^ Yes, what a great way to cheat the OE into giving you a warranty that you don't deserve. Wrong is wrong, you have to pay to play. If you can't don't.

I agree with Blue if you really want warranty take the time to bring to stock then take it in and make up a complete bs lie!

Fritts 11-03-2012 12:58 PM

I love how people take responsibility for their own actions. And people wonder why America is going down the tubes.... Post your failure here and then take your car in for warranty as
"stock" and that dealership might receive a little note from someone like me.

Jeff86 11-03-2012 01:10 PM

As long as the warranty repair didn't have anything to do with said power adder, I don't see a thing wrong with removing it and taking it in for service.
