How to tell if it's tuned ?

Just curious, Is there any way to tell if a car has had a tune put on it? By means of boost pressure, AFR , etc? I think my car has a tune but I don't know and want to try and find out if I can without throwing it on a dyno..lol

+1 Post this in the Northeast Region maybe and you can probably find someone local. If not, you could bring it to a tuner shop, such as IveyTune, and they can diagnose it all, of course for a fee though.

theres a cable that can plug into your odbII port and you can pull the infomation off and see if anything is changed that way.
