more than likely most dealers will not know the difference in the 2.2 and 2.4 mani's they look alot alike except for the runners are a lil bit bigger. so unless they happen to really know somethin bout the balts then they will not ever know the diff in it. as far as voidin the warranty they cant untill they can prove that a mod you did actually caused a problem you bring the car in for. all they can do if the happen to know its not the mani that came on it is flag your warranty so they know you have somethin different on the car than what was suppose to be there. no for your exhaust question. 2.5 is the biggest you'll want to run on your car unless you go f/i cuz the motor wont ever put out enough power n/a to support usin 3in or larger exhaust.

What does it matter? It is still a question of SAI or no, the 06.5 and newer with California emissions standards came with it but that was it and not every state is cali emissions.

Yep,

If you have it, you will see an extra tube coming right out of the airbox.

I guess I'm going to have to do everything except the header for the exhaust.

it's not that easy to "have it turned off" .. but he says he doesn't have SAI anyway so w/e.

btw florida emissions requirements are almost as bad as CARB aren't they?

Refer to my previous post. SAI is not required on the car unless your state adapted CA Emissions. Ask Facelesskhaos, he has an 07 with no SAI.
