When are you gonna upload the pics from the photoshoot? I'm excited to see how the rest came out. :excited:

Haha, let me get on that... I've only edited 3 pictures so far...out of the 140 I took. Of course, I'll only choose about 10 or so.

Nice. I would like to do one too, but don't have an actual camera, just my Droid Incredible.

Certain dealers have a performance division, in which they warranty their work. For example, my old Infiniti dealer would install/warranty Vortech superchargers kits.

To be honest i didnt know that, but they warranty there work.
so if the install was done wrong, and the engine poped then they'd warranty it.
but if the engine just blows up, i highly doubt theyll warranty it. but hey i could be wrong, thats just what im assuming.

And I could be wrong as well. Putting an aftermarket supercharger or turbo on an NA engine is already a risk. The liability a dealer undetakes is huge. I'm sure they charge an arm and a leg for the kit plus they will charge a ridiculous amount for installation and everything included. That's probably the only way they can justify offering a warranty package and an aftermarket forced induction system. Not to mention...they parts at wholesale, haha.

I know my local ford shop will do power up-grades even SC kits. They do the work, with their parts only then will they warranty. My local nissan place will not do anything like this.

The difference is that is with Ford racing parts (similar to Nismo parts but more options). Ford allows you to order almost anything and put it on your car with a full warranty but you also pay 10-20% more for that warranty plus install.
