Let me tell you from first hand experience, that if your modification can be any way linked to an item you are trying to claim, then they can/will void it.

For example, if you change your catback and you have an engine related failure then they can theoretically claim that the catback has thrown your specs offline and caused an issue. Exhaust is always a debatable one. I had a ticking noise coming from my engine and Ford would not even diagnose it because I had extractors and cats back on....even when I got 3 independant workshops to attest to the fact that the exhaust was not leaking or causing the noise.

However, if for example you change your catback, and the water pump fails or one of your shocks malfunction then you'll be fine, because they are completely unrelated.

This is actually stated in your service manual (obviously in more legal speak).
