Taking it to NMS is only a good thing where RSTs are concerned.

Karl chipped my standard car and it did 35k miles at 1bar without any problems what so ever.

If your car is up to scratch it will be fine.

If you take it to NMS it will get a very carefull eye and check - the last thing Karl will want to do is set it up with a fault and it melt a few hundred yards down the road.
