But why? If you're worried about warranty, I'm pretty sure it could be voided either way

That's true~! ^^

I think op is trying to avoid putting stress on the engine with ots tunes.
I can kinda see where his thoughts are, but in the end you are voiding the warranty anyways so might as well get the tune for it.

I was considering getting the burble tunes without the tune itself, but decided to stay stock.
