Dealers can not tell if its flashed on the 03 and 04 cars
One way to tell would be to log the OBDII data and see what rpm the rev limiter activates at as most reflashers use a higher rev limit. Don't rerl on your tach - they are not that accurate. Also logging the ignition timing can tell you if you know what you are looking for.
05 cars its easy to tell
If you send it in to me, I will tell you for free if it has a flash in it or its stock. You pay shipping.

The dealers can't tell? What ever happened to the guy who went to the dealer with your flash and they detected it?
