you definitely have to go with the Autobahn Exotics catback I think is the best sounding exhaust out there

nope, not really, you are only helping the engine. Unless it FMIC actually screws something up, its just like w/ any other car. As long as the mod doesnt break something else, you are good to go

Tune is the only thing that will 100% void it but I've seen many people get **** for DPs, so those are the two to avoid, although they are the two that gives by far the biggest gains

It's easy for a dealer to deny engine warranty when they see an aftermarket FMIC. It's not somethig you can hide.

I'm not saying they will deny warranty, it's just within their right with you start messing with any engine related parts. The safest route would be to ask the service manager.

Don't be so nieve.

I don't know what that means, I speak english

In fact, 3 of my friends have the HPF FMIC and have all taken their cars to dealers for warranty work and none have had problems

Unless the FMIC broke what you are trying to get fixed, you will be covered, there is no need to hide anything.
