Is there any way to tell if a FD has been mapped?

Thanks

Looking at the unit will tell you if its a stock unit, if its got an Apexi in there, then it might be mapped, it might not be!

If there\'s a Power FC fitted, best bet is to take it to a reputable rotary tuner. They\'ll be able to check the map in the ECU and tell you straight away.

I\'m sure you\'ve checked but no other paperwork with the car about where it has been maintained ??? because if there is a tuners receipt you can ring them and ask if its been mapped, long shot but they might remember the car ??
