If the monster Kinka-byo Summoned is Booked, does it still get banished?!
Kinka-byo Special Summons a monster and it is flipped face-down.
No. Flipping either Kinka-byo or the summoned monster face-down breaks the link, so it will not be banished.
If Tuningware is revived by Kinka-byo and used as Synchro Material with Kinka, is it banished?!
Tuningware is Special Summoned by Kinka-byo and all materials are used for a Synchro Summon.
No. The materials are sent to the GY simultaneously as Synchro Material, so Tuningware is not banished by Kinka-byo's effect.

[KIRYU](1) Once per turn, during your Main Phase, if you control this card on the field, you can equip it to your "Dark Blade" as an Equip Card, OR unequip the Union equipment and Special Summon this card in face-up Attack Position. (2) While equipped to a monster by this card's effect, increase the ATK/DEF of the equipped monster by 900 points, and you can Tribute this card to allow the equipped monster to attack your opponent's Life Points directly this turn. (C) (1 monster can only be equipped with 1 Union Monster at a time. If the equipped monster is destroyed as a result of battle, destroy this card instead.) While "Mask of Restrict" is active, you cannot Tribute "Kiryu" because "Mask of Restrict" prevents all Tributing, including Tributing Equip Spell Cards. If you Tribute "Kiryu" while it is equipped to "Dark Blade", you cannot then use "Super Rejuvenation" and count "Kiryu" as a Dragon-Type monster. If you Tribute "Kiryu" while equipped to "Dark Blade", "Dark Blade" no longer gets the ATK increase from "Kiryu" as it is no longer equipped with it.
