Hi Mario,
Any modified part will void warranty on the part you replace / modify and any associated parts in relation to that mod.
Thanks mate, well that sucks haha. I guess I'll just have to hope nothing goes wrong after the mod then!
I was expecting this for an introductory post...
"Ehh, my name is a Mario, I boughta the MPS. Where cana I go to makea the car throw the turtle shells..."
Lol, welcome mate, as mentioned above certain parts will void warranty to the part being replaced. But there's plenty you can do to the MPS to keep it in warranty.
Just depends what you want to do to it I guess.

Matt hit nail on the head...
Some dealers are a bit more lenient than others though...
Had one dealer refuse to cover my broken window motor cause I had an exhaust, whilst another happily did it....
ECU tuning pretty much stuffs everything though![]()

! sorry to disappoint rogwick! I should get that in a sticker and put it on the car haha..I was just looking to make the car a bit more powerful and louder because it's way to quiet for my liking. I'm thinking of putting a cat back and cold air?
Lol, guys who know me well know I enjoy a laugh! Powerful I would suggest a tune preferably one you can flash on/off yourself (the MPS3 can unlock some decent gains with a tune alone)
I don't see exhaust being a problem, however if you get a downpipe and the turbo seals fail that might be warranty void in that aspect. If its too quiet then just swap the mufflers out and retain the stockies.
Intake should be fine, can always take it off if need be. SRI/CAI will give a nice induction sound
