BD Variable Vane Exhaust Brakes

OK.... I ordered the BD Variable Vane Exhaust Brake the other day! When I asked them if using their product would or could void my mfg warranty.. first they said no way would it affect the warranty in any way... I tried to do some more looking around with no luck..

I called them back and got a tech.. he told me the following--
"To be safe, I would have a "hypothetical" conversation with a service manager. From what I understand a dealer can flag your Vin# and a restriction is placed on the vehicles warranty and will follow it no-matter what dealership you go to; I just want you to know everything I do- but it sounds like they should be able to help you out if you are a good-customer for them."

I am not really sure I want to have that conversation with my service rep.?? any first hand knowledge out here ?

    Why not call Ford customer service and get an answer from the factory?
