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:

Good point. I don't know about the FA20....but that's something else to consider.

Personally, having to baby a performance engine seems a little silly....but the lawyers write in loopholes that many mfgs will try and take advantage of....especially when they've really stepped in it with a design flaw that's going to cost a lot of $$$ to rectify.
