warranty service w/ mods at Steve Moyer, Lancaster or Becker Subaru?

I live outside Reading, PA and would like to use one of those dealers to service my BRZ. I'd like to install some bolt ons (header, intake, catback) but I'm worried the dealer will give me issues if I need warranty work done. I understand dealers vary in how lenient they are regarding mods and just was wondering if anyone who has preformed light mods has any experience with how cooperative either Steve Moyer or Becker Subaru service centers have been. Appreciate any input! Thanks.

[Edit] Also interested in Lancaster Subaru...forgot to mention them.

I do not have experience with either of these two dealers. However, I cracked two ringlands in my '10 STi and Concordville Subaru in PA took care of me. I had a turbo-back exhaust and some "look fast" bits when I brought it to them. Almost $7000 in parts and labor (per the service write up I had to sign) all covered under factory warranty.

I would say they're mod-friendly as long as the mod is not obviously attributable to the problem. Hope this is somewhat helpful.

Thanks spyke...any info on dealers in the general area is helpful. Thanks for replying!

Also, forgot to mention originally but I'd be interested in Lancaster Subaru as well...
