Have some questions about adding engine accessories to a new car:
	(these are only concerned with 'major' enhancements such as 
		turbos and intercoolers, different oil pumps, etc.)


I.	-- Will it void your warranty?
		
(a)		If:	1.  turbo/intercooler is non-factory unit
			2.  if installed by carbuffs reading the directions
				carefully

(b)		If:    	1.  turbo/intercooler is factory unit
			2.  if installed by carbuffs reading the directions
				carefully

(c)		If: 	1.  turbo/intercooler is factory unit
			2.  if installed by the dealer you bought the car
				from


II.	-- If you have a computer controlled injection system and you replace
		the computers' turbo-only PROMs (programmable read only memory) 
		with turbo and intercooler programmed PROMS 

		-- Will it void your warranty?
		-- Will it hurt your car?


III.	-- Has anyone installed their own turbos and/or intercoolers on top of
		their turbos on their own cars?  Someone else's?

IV.	-- What will it do to the resale value?  Can it improve the resale 
		value?


Thanks in advance for your advice/information.  You can post your answers to 
the net but I will summarize the information I get back.
