You might try reinstalling your stock air system. It could have =
something to do with your transmistion shift cable which opperates off =
of your TB. It is adjustable and maybe might just need to be tweeked =
due to the preformance differences your mods have done.

My understanding is that by law they can not void any warranty for just =
bolt on mods.

I do know that when you start playing around with the electronics they =
may blame the mod for problems that you have run across.. I don't know =
about headers.. Perhaps as long as you use Mopar accessories they will =
be ok... Not sure thought.
