wow... maybe its like that for you mustang people, but have you tried vw dealerships? a chip WILL void warranty, it can be connected to any problem relating to the engine, can be related to any problem involving wear and tear, can be related to any fuel related issues, heck, they'll probably stick "creaking chassis" on the chip cuz you're running "out of design specifications"
other smaller things, such as exhaust, wont void the warranty completely, since exhausts only deal with... exhaust. a chip on the other hand? thats a whole 'nother can of worms. chips on american cars (pardon my bias) are pretty useless. im not talking standalone or things like that, im talking updated ecu's. for american cars... you probably wouldn't even bother having one. on european cars... one chip takes over ALOT of aspects on the car.
