Let me ask you a question; when the dealer finds your illegal downpipe and rightfully tells you go kick rocks and you scream "Magnuson Moss!" Which then they ask you leave the premises..
What's the next move?
The dealer can do whatever they want, sure you can litigate but prepare to spend triple the cost towards useless lawyers.. I'm sure when the judge hears you tampered with a federally mandated emission control device, that will win you a lot of points.
I'm not a tree-hugger and I couldn't care less about the rules but facts is facts, take your vehicle in with an aftermarket downpipe installed and they will outright refuse to cover anything remotely related, under the manufacture warranty.
The chart below applies only in some US states but it shows the turbocharger falls under the extended emission coverage:
