i still have 2years left on my warranty and i'm running out of things to mod for speed cause the engine is off limits. do you guys think that if i bored my throttle body, the satan's mechanics will notice and void my warranty?

They wont notice, go ahead and do it.
And you can do what ever to the engine you want, as long as that part doesn't cause the problem then your fine.

Ive had headers,UPD,wires,CAI and taken it in for warranty work with no problems

I say go for all the normal bolt ons, but make sure you keep your stock parts handy. Every dealership is different, and when I had my spun bearing one of the techs told me to take my car home and take my exhaust and intake off and put the stockers back on. They didnt notice the bored TB so I left that on.

The TB will help a bit in the acceleration from a start etc..
