Ok...If I understand correctly, I would void my warranty if I throw a turbo in my tC.... and also in a meaning of time I would have to change the clutch, flywheel and upgrade to premium fuel ( ).... if I do this.... would it be recommended to stop paying for the extended warranty or what have you guys done with the warranty issue when you throw a turbo?

I didn't care about the warranty - they can only deny warranty service if they can prove that the turbo caused the issue. IE: My battery was faulty - they couldn't deny me service because I have the turbo in. They replaced the battery under warranty.

Warranty??? What's that? Haha nah, but I have an 08 with 7k on it.. Boosted at 2.5k.. They have to prove your modification was the Direct cause for your cars failure.

EXAMPLE!:

If you turbo your car then your wireing harness for the radio goes out, and you have it under warrenty, they have to prove how the turbo caused your wireing harness to fail.

I only had 1 problem with warranty work. My shifter wasn't working right so they had to fix the wiring for it. Because I had some tranny mods (tranny cooler) they charged me for it. It wasn't much so I was ok with it.
