Actually in California you don't have to get your first smog check on a new vehicle for the first 5 years when you register it.
Things to worry about would be a roadside testing station - they have manned ones where they will put your car on rollers and test it and unmanned ones that monitor emissions as you drive past and then send a ticket in the mail.
Also, if an officer suspects your exhaust system is illegal they can write you a ticket, sending you to a smog referee for testing too.
For a dealer to void your warranty, they would have to show that the HFC caused the damage to whatever part failed. However, being that this car is in CA there are a lot of legal issues to be considered concerning emission laws...
@knigh001 Agreed, the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act takes presidence over such actions. An aftermarket exhaust will not cause damage to the engine, drivetrain or body. I also agree that CARB has specific limitations imposed upon exhausts and other aftermarket parts. They must be approved by the board and stamped as such. A CHP officer can issue an inspection ticket and force you to have the vehicle inspected at one of their sites, which can cause libility issues you are responsible for.
Minicobra, great video. LOVE THE sound man! BTW, do you mind adding the forum link (of the thread you created) in the "more info" section. This way people will know where to get the exhaust or learn more about it.
If you call a berk Dealer they can pre order you one as I did today. I called Ryan at forged performance for mine. Its on back order for 6 to 8 weeks. If your a member of the370 you should be able to find his shop under sponsor classifieds
