Default New s2k owner w/ endless questions

I just threw coilovers on my stock shocks , well shocks with less miles. and i was told i am supposto get a camber kit with lowering it because it does have a little strange rear wheel un straight... ness. is it true that with it staggered like how it is now with the camber facing in i guess you would call it its better for of the line and if i got a camber kit it would be better for canyon runs ? 2nd question. is there really a point in buying cold air when you can cut the silencer out of the air box and save 300ish$? i see no real purpous if there is not going to be a significant upgrade. 3rd question! say i threw spoon cat, piggy back ecu, and headers.... i have a warrenty and cant they read that shit even when i take it off when i blow my transmission (on purpous) in 37 days when my grace period is up, cant they read the emissions shit or the air fuel mixture and see that i had other stuff on there from one time to another? how do i bypass that if that is the case? i am a new s2k owner.... this is nothing like my 3rd gen camaros that you could do anything to. Thanks!

WOW! It would help alot better with Capitalizations and grammer. With all the tons of questions you have, you should seperate it by giving each question its own line so we can see it a little clearer. Just trying to help you out.

If you blow your transmission on purpose, the dealer will won't replace. The warranty is for things that break, not wear out. I have heard stories of peoples transmissions being denied warranty coverage because the dealer suspected them of "quick shifting."

P.S. Sell your car and buy a mustang, it will suit you much better.
