Default 9 yr 100 k warranty

Call me crazy but $80 more a month on a car like this with PDCC and all the other things can can go wrong, the cost to fix down the road was hard to swallow , even have the wheel and tire insurance, paintless dent & interior protection insurance... ...YOLO

I'm skeptical that switchpath and BMC will unleash any additional bhp (esp w/o sucking tq away elsewhere)

In all honesty not sure why you would install switchpath with PSE already there?

not only that, but it could be *REALLY* (too) loud ...

(not too mention that claim of increased bhp is on an 'S' and not a GTS - i.e no powerkit)
