I limited my mods somewhat until then but I had stuff like FTRA, lid, suspension mods, and even a converter installed.

I had an AC compressor replaced by the dealer (I paid $100 deductible, Wynn paid $750), a new motor installed at 63k miles by the dealer (I paid $100 deductible plus $1400 to get a new rather than used motor, Wynn paid about $5500), and a rebuilt transmission at about 83k miles (I paid $100 deductible, Wynn paid about $1700). For the $1100 I paid, Wynn paid almost $8000.

Obviously a rare case but if I had to pay this much I would probably have lost the car. I thought getting a performance car covered until close to 100k miles for $1100 was a good deal - turned out I was right. I did have some problems getting Wynn to pay so I am not sure I would recommend them but they did pay after the necessary "discussions".

I now have 104k miles on the car and finally got the LT's I had to hold off on.
