Blackwing and Factory Warrantee
Hello from Tropical Minnesota. Well it's getting winter time in Minnesota and
I'm thinking it's time for the mod's to begin. The first thing I'm thinking of
is a Blackwing, but wondered if installing it will void the factory warrantee.

Installing it will not void the warranty. However, if something with your car goes wrong, and the dealer can prove the Blackwing caused it, then your warranty will be voided for that particular part only or incident only. The rest of the car is still covered.

Something like a Blackwing should not affect your warranty and 123Gone's post above is technically correct.
However, I saw on another board where someone had been denied warranty coverage on their transmission because of a CAGS defeat!
All this seems to vary from dealer to dealer.

123Gone - well stated. About the only worry is water. The hood seal is a nice complimentry product. Good bang for the buck and a cool look besides.

Do what I did. Keep all the factory parts, etc. If mine goes in for service, so does the stock air filter. Same with CAGS, easy to remove and install. Why take the chance.
