power programmers and warranties

Ok so I just bought a 2002 LB CC PSD and it has an extended warranty. It already has a 4" turbo-back exhaust and I would like to purchase a power programmer for it. I would like to know if this will void the extended warranty or not. If it will then I will skip it for now. If it won't then I would like to continue researching them. I do not want one that is shift-on-the-fly because I tend to have a very abusive right foot. The more inconvenient it is for me to access the different settings the safer/better it is for me. Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks

They will use any excuse possible to void your warranty. Especially an ESP!!!!

If you do not want the hassle or cost, do the programmer at another time.

I would have to agree. I think the best ones to use would be the chip style, you can put them in and take them out and as far as I know they don't do anything change wise to you PCM. But you would have to take it in and out when you went for service. The chip type being the on the fly ones. You would just have to make sure everything went back to a stock look before you took it to the dealership.
