Default noobie -->> what mods to do to get around a warranty?

well my srt-6 got rearended back in august, and they said we probably wont be getting it back until early november sometime. Planning on coming into some money from the insurance company, i was wondering which mods i should be getting to first that would not void my warranty... i have an extended warranty to 85K. I have a CAI on it right now, which the dealership didn't give me any fuss about. What should be Next? what's the best order of things? when does a tune come into play?

sorry about all the questions. im fairly young and admit, i havent done TOO much research on the car. Opinions are always good

a smart dealership might notice a different sized crank pulley and accompanying different size accessory pulleys. If you want to do a pulley and ensure you keep your warranty, go with the code3. i went to the dealership countless times when i was under warranty with my c32 and they never said a word about the supercharger pulley

i doubt they would notice a heat exchanger. they would have no reason to look there. you could get a tune. i wouldnt personally do a tune until after intake and pulley, but if you dont want to get a pulley, then a tune could be fine now. there is no way they can detect that.

before i did any mods i on your car i would ensure EVERYTHING was fixed to new standards. so many times after a collision the most folks worry about is how shiny is the paint. these are very finicky cars whan it comes to being smashed and its a waste to toss money into mods then realize the car just doesnt track rite or drive properly. once you are positive the car is rite as rain try the c3 pulley with a tune. supercooler with a cm30 or mezaire pump will help with heatsoak.
