To replicate issue: You need to be going at least 70mph in 6th gear. As you downshift to 5th, clutch all the way in, blip the gas as to revmatch, and as you put the shifter into 5th you will feel the gears. It's not a good feeling haha
I called and made an appointment, and they said it would be $60 if nothing checked out and they couldn't make a warranty claim. I have a 7 year 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Is this standard to all FRS's? Also, I put in a mishimoto intake. Will this stop me from making a warranty claim? Thanks

As far as the downshifts from 6th to 5th, if all you feel is a meshing of the gears, I wouldn't worry about it. If they "grind" or refuse to engage, you may have a problem.
I doubt your changing out the intake would effect any transmission warrant work.
The power train warranty on my 2013 FR-S is 60 months or 60,000 miles.
