Dan, good question. You can remove the mods but if the warranty claim is major, e.g., blown motor, Ford sends out an inspector. The inspector looks for signs of modding.
The first thing they look for is evidence a chip was installed. Ford uses a special coating on the chip connectors, and if that's removed, the the warranty is history.
Next they look for signs of removing the pulley(s). Maybe there are shiny spots on the bolt heads. Maybe a scratch from a tool.
Most of all, they look for signs of burnouts, which they will claim as "vehicle abuse". They compare tread depth against the mileage of the vehicle (yeah, really!). They also look under the rear fenders for shreds of rubber. Again, they will use this as a reason to void the warranty.
2 months ago I said h*ll with it all and started modding...I have a special dealer hookup in case something goes south
