take gundo out before dealership visit?

all,

warranty on my C2S 2006 is expiring in a couple weeks.
I have a couple things I want P-dealer to check before CPO expired.
I will also buy a extended warranty. can't afford an 911 engine and it will give me a hard time to sleep without it....

so question: should I take the gundo exhaust off and put back stock ones before dealership visit?

this means to take them off every year for my yearly maintenance...

will porsche give me any hard time in the event of an engine failure if they saw the car with modified exhaust a few months before any engine issues?

it's not that long to take them off, like an hour ish..

I don't think it would be a problem, but that would depend on the team at your dealership too. (think, Good Cop / Bad Cop) - here is an old thread with a little dialogue about the same topic:

Not a problem at all, mine had gundo & air intake & tons of mods and was certified, i always took it in without a question from anyone!

I say depends on the dealer if there D-bags you never know but if there mod friendly then leave it on. Feel them out

keep it on. it would only be a problem if there's an issue with your car and they can directly trace it back to your mufflers.

Dealership never gave me problems with Gundo but I want to think I'm also in good terms with the service folks.

I asked my dealer and he said this would void any exhaust warranty(obviously)
he said, as long as you keep the catalytic converter, we are ok with that
