I have full exhaust and an intake went in for a small problem and they wouldn't touch the car.

Sorry, I have to support the dealer on this one. You want to modify your car? Why should GM warranty a drivetrain modified by amateurs with components that were not part of GM's original design?
Granted, if you modified the engine, that shouldn't affect a radio failure, or peeling paint. But engine failures, yeah sorry. You're on your own.
An air intake can change the air/fuel ratio. An exhaust can alter backpressure. Fiddling with (tuning) the engine control parameters after these mods can potentially cause problems that you can hardly hold the GM engineers responsible for.
You wanna buy a new car and screw with it? Be man enough to take responsibility for the consequences. Did you read the warranty?
