No part will ruin a warranty unless the failure is a result of the modification.

i had pulleys on my bmw i hated it, the AC never worked right after i had in installed. removed the aftermarket pulley and re-installed factory one. i would advise against it because it really does add very little gain. you do not increase hp, just trying to recover that tiny bit of power being used by the belts powering stuff like alternator and AC. i would rather invest the money in better tires, you'll see more gain there.

it's not a huge power gainer but there's an uppage in power throughout the powerband

I'd have to say my experience with Unorthodox Racing's pulley set on my VR6 was great. No problems at all; definitely an increase in power.

I had pullies on my old 5-0 T5 sedan and they sucked. Got to put more power to the pavement, but at the cost of killing batteries, poor performing AC which is a drag here in hot SoCal, and running the motor hot.
