My buddy said some dealerships are dumb and may still cover it and not notice the aftermarket stuff at times.
If it keeps them from having to warranty or pay out, they'll spot aftermarket parts a mile away. Do you have a test pipe also?

If your mods caused the damage, own up to it.

if there is visible smoke, or broken gasket from over torque, there will be a exhaust leak. It will sound like rumbling.

well, the dealership just told me one of my spark plugs are cracked and that they should replace all of them, even though I had new OEM ones put in around 8 months ago. What caused these to crack? Can a cracked spark plug cause compression leaks or for all cylinders to misfire? So they will see if this cures the whole problem, but I doubt it. They will get back to me after they install the new spark plugs.
