vtec controller = boost control?

i had cai and apexi vafc installed a month ago. a week later, i also installed sub and amp to my stock stereo. in the process, my srs fuse blew and srs light came on....fortunately nothing popped!!! anyways, i took it back to the acura dealer, as many of you told me to...
well, on the same day, they were supposed to redo the black tape on my rear door under warranty since it was bubbling up.
the service manager was kind enough to get me a rental car for the day, and reset my srs lights under warranty!!!
but, the funny thing was what he said at the end...
"your boost controller is tapped into the computer and other electrical wires, if it comes on again, we might not be able to cover it under warranty... and the unit has to be removed before we reset it."
i was soooo happy that they cover them under warranty!!! =)
well, my car has like 47k miles now....and i don't think it will come on again in 3k miles when warranty expires unless i pop the airbags for unfortunate reasons....

Are you tapping power for your amp from the same fuse as the ECM? You may want to tap a higher-power fuse line, or tap directly to the battery side of the fuse and provide your own inline fuse for your amp.
