Question People w/blown tranny and Headers

How many have had blown tranny with headers. When the tranny dies, how many TL'er have brought thier car in for new tranny replacement with headers installed? Do Acura question about the headers or give you a hard time? I have Obx headers and if i go in for a tranny replacement, would they question me or void the warrentee with the aftermarket headers?

Thats the law but Acura can say anything. For example, They know that the tranny on our cars are weak, hence we put more power which will cause the tranny to fall apart sooner. And Acura might denied fixing the tranny if they see "Power Adder" Parts.

The transmission sucks with or without mods. You should have no problem.
