You can probably do an intake/exhaust only with keeping your warranty. Any power this car makes comes from freeing up the catalytic...
I have the AMS Catted downpipe - expensive, but quality. I went from catless to AMS due to not being able to pass emissions in Illinois with BM3.

You are not alone - I noticed it right when I drove the car for the first time after buying it and even bought a Versus Brace to see if it would help with the feeling....
Got both axles in and everything cleaned up - took car for a ride and no issues.
I can now play around more and launch from 2nd gear without worrying about breaking anything...
Im going to write another thread from some things that I have learned :)
Thank you all for responding!
