I wouldn't bother with the innovate kit. Lots of other kits out there that provides better gains and best bang for your buck

Basically everything voids your warranty as it relates to the modded component. Meaning if you change to an 18 for stock wheels and warp your brakes the dealer will not replace them free if they know. ditto for an exhaust issue if you change exhausts, and definitely anything relating to drivetrain and engine. You have to decide if the warranty matters to you.

Well I ordered the jdl UEL headers thinking it was in stock since that's what the website said. Found out there sold out and expected wait time is 3 weeks. Yay

Seems like most people don't really care about voiding their warranty?

Odds of something going wrong to an unmodded car are very unlikely during the first 3 years. Odds are better at getting in a car accident.

Just a heads-up on the valentis, apparently they identified the problems that were causing a string of LEDs to burn out and are shipping new and improved units to Mod Bargains.

They've been so awesome to deal with on this, I honestly wouldn't order them through anyone else. They're shipping me a new replacement when they arrive in July.
