I've seen it and while it looks to be a great product I'm a little hesitant to
trash my warranty. I can't imagine Honda would be too sympathetic if an
IMA problem developed, even if it had nothing to do with the product
installation or use, nor could I really blame them.
I quess I don'tget it....Any modification to the IMA system has a chance
of voiding the IMA warranty. Yet it seems like only one mod is being
thought as having that reputation. It begns wit the letter M...Most people
will know the mod I'm talking about.
Has anyone tried flipping the main circuit breaker for the battery while
the car is running and computers are powered up?..Just the thought of
it sounds to me like the most dangerous thing you could attempt for the
IMA system.
If you take your car in for warranty and the problem is related to any
mod be it the famous radiator block for overheating reasons or IMA mods
described above, Honda as the right not to honor your warranty.
I know part of this is a bit off topic but I believe some of the suggestions
posted should also include warnings about what could possibly go wrong
(preferably by the same poster) An example of this would be an older
thread that would have you turning off the ignition (manually) to save
gas while going downhill. There are safety problems if you turn the key
too far and the steering may lock without you knowing it until its too late.
Now back on topic: If you are truly concerned about IMA warranty then
don't do any mods related (even slightly) to the IMA system.
