Like I state on my title, I am wondering if I do a resonator delete, that will void my warranty? I dont want and cant spend money on a aftermarket muffler to make my EB sounds aggressive...but seems like if I have just the resonator delete, will be enough to make it sounds a bit better.
The second thing I heard is that if I remove the recirculation tube from the turbo, I will be able to hear that beautiful PSSSSSSSSS sound, without having to spend money on a BOV; So, in other words, if I have a BOV they may void the warranty and I am wondering if I remove the recirculation tube and close the other end, if that will also void the warranty? My main concern is about my first question because once I have done, it will be a headache to put it back but not if I just have to reconnect the recirculation tube (easy and quick...even for a guy who is not mechanically inclined).
Thanks ahead of time, for your answer. I appreciate.:cheers:

Although I have a GT. I have done for Ford Performance X pipe resonator delete, and deleted the intake sound tube.

My car has been in for its 10K service, panel alignment fix, and had the GTPP thump recorded.

I will also be putting the Ford Performance oil separator on my car once it comes it.

No mention from my dealer service deptartment about the mods, however I am avoiding anything major due to the warranty, or using Ford components.

This being said. I asked my dealer before hand about mods. My salesman who I still chat with on occasion said they cater to the Mustang, and as long as it bolt ons. They won't every mention it because that's why you buy a Mustang, to make it yours. It said once you start adding poweradders, non Ford tunes ect. It could pose more of an issue.

I do however plan on leaving to core aspects of the powertrain stock.

Every dealer is different. I know I have a good one. I never had issues with warranty work done to my car. They even replaced my transmission with a brand new one at 3,000 miles on car. All because part that was needed for my transmission was on backorder, and new part was coming no time soon. I have a ford racing axleback on my car and had no issues. I also have had two other warranty issues taken care of with no issues with my axle back.

Generally for a H/X pipe and mufflers no. It' doesn't change any of the emissions things since the cats are still in. I haven't heard of anyone getting denied for a catback.

Did you have the ford racing xpipe with the stock mufflers?

If so how do you like it?

I was thinking about doing this, because I want a little more noise, but would like to put most of my $ into suspension upgrades. So if I could get away with this for a little until i get full exhaust it would be sweet.

if anything detrimental happens just put it back to stock. I doubt they'll red flag you for that at a dealer visit

If you plan on putting it back to stock.. I hope you can weld. lol

anyway it won't matter. I can't imagine a dealer trying to through that at you. like it was said before, x-pipe doesn't change a thing except letting it breath a little better and sound a little louder in a very subtle way. If a dealer does that to you.. they just don't want new business, sometimes they have their hands and schedule full.

Truly, my plan is to simple remove the resonator and fulfill the space with a single straight tube at a local shop that charges about $150 to do it. Not in condition to add more $$ at this moment because I am responsible to help a brother who recently got into a head-on/wrong way drunk driver accident and without insurance ( all of that the other MF guy) and is now in a wheelchair and its quite expensive to take care of all. I can afford my house, my bills but truly my wife is on top of me about putting mods on the car...and somehow she is right...anyway...thanks for the feedback.:headbang:

big enough failure that ford might try to blame it on something like this is probably worth the 40$ it would cost to have it welded back in
