I also tried a plug in box which worked but I prefer the software remap for drive.
Completely agree it shouldn't overwrite it, but they would probably end up updating all software while they are there, more hassle than it's worth!

Yeah the ecu would have to be benched to be mapped but the people I know do this all the time
