13k is not going to cause the problems you're mentioning. Considering that Nissan has written off exhaust manifolds as an expense of using the same old engine, why would they do so when it could cause even larger engine failures. Manifolds are going to fail with this engine design, putting it off towards the end of his warranty cycle is going to keep him having to drop another $500+ for the fix later on.
