so the service manager says to me...

... he says, "you can't put an intake on an Infiniti... it'll void your warranty!" To which I replied, "no way".... and he was all like "waaaay". Then I was all Magnussen-Moss, and he was all like "whut?"

Then I lol'd.

Cool story, huh?

So I am getting the stillen gen 3 the end of the month.

Don't tell them you have an intake. Just take it off before you get there to do warranty work.

That's silly. You can't void warranty for intakes.

An intake shouldn't cause problems. My service manager even asked me when I was going to put an intake on mine. Go to a different dealership.

I can't stand some dealers, mine said a throttle body spacer will void the warranty, and messing with the cats like hfc or test pipes will void it too
