I mainly worried cause I paid extra for 100k mile warranty and would hate to void that
If you "tune" you can end up paying. As of now Dinan is the only piggy that will pay. You cannot tune any car and the dealer in case of a failure, not dig and find a tune was put in, even if re flashed back to stock. Again, spend about 10-20 hours reading to familiarize yourself. jB4 is not a tune, neither is Dinan, they are piggy backs.
DME, evolve, BM3, and others that change your ecu are tunes. Yes you double power increase with a real tune but you need to understand the difference between a piggy and a TUNE. Could cost $30-40k to go with a tune
