I believe by signing the upgrade waiver, you already voided the warranty.

Didnt you say you went with the stillen because it was no maintenance?
Not trying to be rude at all, but i think the reason a lot of people hate stillen is it cant be altered or controlled so a great tuner cant make your car any safer. Kinda like getting a volvo, any maintenance and they have you coming back to only them.... so if the service sucks, they still have you by the *****.

Sorry to hear man!! Sounds to me like their "custom tune" is gonna be them slipping in a new SS box. I don't know why they bull$hit people so much there. I've noticed they don't ever like to admit when they don't know something, so they give a BS answer, or pass you from person to person. Here's a dumb queston too....have you checked the wire going to your 7th injector?? I had mine pull outta the fuse tap before. Luckily i noticed it before i ever started the car. But since that injector only fires at WOT that could be an issue too.

Guess i'm one of the lucky ones!! Went stage three today (red pully) no issues, no wierd noises. Enjoyed nice added tourque, hp, and noise for $92.00!!! Prob the only cost effective part of this kit so far!! lol

I'm glad i don't actually see the people i talk to on the phone with cause there's a couple of them there that are rocks!! I don't blame him for sayin f'-it! With FI comes the occasional need for technical support. And you don't seem to get much of that outta Stillen untill you start forkin' over bucks!
Ouch, If this kit didnt come on my car theres no way i would buy it flat out due to the support they have. wait i mean DONT have
