Default Modifications and insurance companies

I'm pondering insuring my pulsar soon and was wondering how far people go when declaring their modifications ?

The non-standard parts on the car is as follows....

Alloys
3" Mongoose Exhaust
HKS front pipe
Shiny purple bleed valve
HKS 264 cams
Nismo rear shocks/springs
Turbo timer
Discs/Pads

What do you think I should declare, if anything ?

Cheers

Down pipe- don't bother telling them
Cams- don't bother telling them
Turbo timer will invalidate any thatcham approval on alarm system
Bleed valve- don't bother
Discs & pads -don't bother

Id declare the lot m8.chances are they wont bat an eyelid.I declared a 200 bhp chip,-31 actuator,magnex pipe,koni adjustables,poly bushes and 17" alloys.They wernt interested (liverpool victoria).They said if I had bored it out then they would have wanted more.Even got the bird to speak to the underwriters and they said the same.If you dont declare and have a bang and they find out its bye bye cover.They will look for any excuse not to pay m8.
