Come one now... Let's be realistic...

Terms look the same back in 2007 as they do today:

I think everyone knows, when you get into upgrading / going to forced induction on a N/A car - YOU are taking on responsibility for whatever goes wrong. You make a conscious decision, that you are giving up your warranty and may blow your motor. You should have the rainy day fund set aside to cover that.

Just like tracking a car. If you are taking your car to a track and doing 140MPH+ you better be confident you can fix whatever breaks when things don't go the way you expect.


In this situation, it doesn't appear to be as a result of a SC/tune (driving around at 6K then pop) but mere bad luck; having the motor go after it was modified to the extent the warranty is void is a bummer.
