Flash back to stock Map for Service???

Hello,
Sorry if it's a noob question buuuut, I recently flashed the GST map onto my 09 Ralliart and installed the boost pill. I need to go in for some basic service soon and would like to know if I need to flash back to stock map and change pill back out so when they test drive it, I don't know if they do that after they do service or not, they don't harm something. I am going in for a transmission flush and the AWD fluid change or whatever that is lol My first AWd car so sorry idk what it's called. So long story short, what maintenance requires a flash back to stock and change of boost pill back to stock? I dont have any other mods on the car that require a tune. Keep in mind this is not to avoid denial of some warranty work, I know you have to pay to play. It's so that they don't accidentally flash it back to stock on me and I drive off and blow something or so they don't blow something. Thanks!

If you're not concerned about warranty, then you should just tell them it's tuned so they won't flash it by accident. They're supposed to ask anyway before touching the ECU.

Yes, if you're not worried about them voiding the warranty, just make sure to speak to the mechanic(FACE TO FACE!) who will be working on your car, and tell him to make sure he doesn't reflash the ECU or modify your tune in any way.

also might want to take a laptop and tactrix with you just incase you need to reflash in the parking lot before driving off.
