first time poster, first time owner

I bought a used 2000' Dodge 2500 CTD auto last Jan. I absolutely love it. The dealer I bought it from could not perform the necessary emissions that the state of Colorado requires. So he gave me this voucher to get done where ever I wanted. I took to this place in CastleRock CO. The boys backed her in. One of them says...."hey you want to Dyno this also..?" Why the heck not....I had 3/4 wood when that engine revved up...the whine of the turbo....the black smoke coming out the side of the building...man o' man was it cool The dyno came back with 215hp and 550 ft-lb torque...not bad for stock...I thought.
From then on I have been hooked. This site....I have checked on since Jan is really awesome. I have already learned a ton just from reading the posts in the FNG section. I am glad I joined. I know the engine is capable of a lot more... ...the one thing that freaks me a little bit is darn warranty thing...(this is probably the MOST asked question) I know I should probably do a search about mods that don't affect warranty...but any help you guys could give me....like even go to this section and read this...would help. Thanks in advance...Eric
