As of right now I have a KKM and a Aussie pipe thats after market on my intake and my fear is that they'll try to void my intake warrenty over it or being ford they could wreak something, and they don't cover aftermarket. Any opions will be valued

I've had to take it in for warranty work and they never said anything about it. The other side is I've not had to take it in for anythying that could be affected by the intake. I know, not very helpful. Tim '00 SVT

Ford doesnt give great hours for some warranty work, especially if youre doing a crapshoot trying to find a hidden problem. 1985 SVO: 4 cylinders, 5 gears, 20 PSI 1998 torredor red SVT contour: #3705 of 6535 need info on your SVTs service/recall/warranty history? e mail me...
