[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1563746, member: 31322"] You’ll be waiting for no good reason IMHO - when it comes to warranty id avoid the obvious “red flag” mods- a huge FMIC that requires cutting up the grill shutters, a dual catch can that requires drilling intake etc (single like JLT less so), an intake that does nothing for power but can throw codes & draw a service mgrs eye, a 160 T-stat that won’t seat properly etc. not really worth it a tune is by far the biggest bang for buck & most significant performance mod. Go w/o a mounted Ngauge & more stealth, return to stock if an issue arises - yah they could check ignition cycling but more than likely they wouldn’t If I were upgrading the IC I’d go w- a stock mount location one that won’t mess up the grill shutters or be so damn obvious (or potentially hurt the engine rads cooling ability) - CVF/mishimoto/Wagner/whipple all make good ones I have a gearhead tune & nice thing about it is there’s an auto-octane adjust feature so if you get stuck w/ no option but 87/89 octane or have some bad gas don’t need to be concerned about knock or doing damage. I don’t think anyone else offers that, but could be wrong. They’re also known to be on the more conservative side for tunes (longevity/reliability) & are very well known for their transmission tuning especially in the diesel world which is worth noting when you consider the Raptor has a TEN speed lol [/QUOTE]
