As of the moral discussion, each to their own. I think that you have to realize obviously that you risk losing your warranty if something should happen to the drivetrain. But you should also know that you run the same risk with any part that is not stock. Aftermarket wheels, exhaust etc.

Regarding insurance, that has never been an issue in Sweden. I think it would be very difficult to prove if the accident was caused because of the chiptuning. Check with your insurance company beforehand.

I know it's different in many countries, where it's even forbidden and tested for it when doing their MOT.

With the 184 hp and the 8 automatic being rather new, I think that I personally wouldn't risk doing any chiptuning during the first few years.
