However we're getting off topic. LOL!! Again, if the warranty is the issue, then your best bet is to stick with a cai and catback. It won't net you 40 HP but it will liven the car up a bit. Running a higher percentage of E85 (as was mentioned) without a sensor and without a tune is dangerous. For starters, you won't really know your actual ethanol content without a sensor and gauge. And without a tune you'll just throw codes and it likely won't run properly. Running a ported blower on the stock tune is also not a good idea as you will likely throw a code and possibly harm your engine. If you did cause harm and bring it to the dealership then they will for sure find out that it was ported and your warranty will be toast anyway. So I would knock those two options off the table. Basically, anything you do that is serious enough to get you an extra 40 HP will require a tune. That is just the way it is unfortunately.
