No it does not trigger the imune system. IMO the factor of overstress
that kills you dead without question is sufficent.

I would have to disagree with this I would rather see someone with
muscle augmentation 4 and "Normal or alpha grade cyber" Than someone
doing like was done with with massive amounts of Delta ware. IE Jett and
creations like that... IMO it makes more sense to this for a corp and/or
other organization to do this than spending a great deal more for delta
grade cyber...
