As an update, I've put about 150 miles on my car since the re-flash and it seems to be working fine. No CELs yet (knock on wood). I was planning on taking it on a 400 mile roadtrip, but didn't want to risk getting a CEL that far from my dealership. Hopefully will get a chance to drive it a bit more in the next week or so.

I know someone will say I'm being ridiculous.....fine. Take your chances, but why place yourself in that situation if you don't have to.....regardless of how unlikely it may be that the mfg may use what's posted in the forum against you?

I don't know about the FA20, but on some cars, the dealer can retrieve that information from the ECU anyway (highest RPM, highest coolant temps, duration, etc.) Take a look at this:
