My first round of upgrades - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I was Thinking of a Greddy turbo. I still may do that later, but this kept my 120k warranty intact and it's a lot of fun to drive. That extra 20% makes a big difference on this car. I'm quite happy with the results.

And those arguing the warranty coverage.......I got it in writing from the dealer, with the service managers name, from whom I purchased the car from and whom will be doing any warranty work.

My next upgrade will be Wheels and Tires.

Would you be able to post a copy of that agreement and give a little detail on how you got it to be agreed? I've never heard of a dealer doing anything like this, even verbally, and have even had dealers try to blame a cracked engine block on gumballs collected at the edge of my tires. If you were able to get mods like this and have the dealer guarantee in writing that it won't void your warranty, I have nothing but the utmost respect and want to learn from you!

I am under the impression that they can always blame a flashed Ecu for engine power train related issues.
