Default What will not void the warrenty?

My friend just modded his BMW 325 and the wife was pretty happy with the results. So she may be willing to let me play a little bit. Anyone know what I can do that will not void the warrenty? I am thinking exhaust and maybe cold air induction. But I cant void my warrenty. It is a 2005.5 a4 (B7). Thanks.

Exhaust probably won't void the warranty but an intake may very well. I talked to my service advisor about this topic. He gave me the ok on exhaust and short shifter kit. Anything cosmetic too will be just fine normally.

such as

*suspension
*Chip
*Body kits

depends on the area, some will, some wont. it would cost more too for labor than a audi specialist shop.

Keep in mind that your service advisor has ZERO authority. I had an Acura service advisor promise me X, Y, Z and I had a long ongoing dispute with Audi USA and the dealership... and I learned the hard way that the service advisor lacks the authority to promise anything outside of dealer policy.
