The Down Pipe has no mechanical or electrical user adjustments. No changes are made to any component of the stock engine for installation, including engine calibration, turbocharger, or any other component of the exhaust system. This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the Down Pipe will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from those of the vehicle manufacturer.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the Down Pipe may have on any warranty either expressed or implied bythe vehicle manufacturer.
