is there a way too tell if my car has been tuned?

The "glove box" behind the passenger seat (for the Owner's Manual) is another possibility.

I posted this in a similar thread but figured I'd ask you guys that were helping me out a couple months ago as well...

So I've been meaning to check this on my car for awhile and finally did today when I got home, in neutral in the garage. Bought the car last december. I tried the ecuteck instructions first, nothing. Then the uprev instructions and it blinks back. Cruise control blinks back how many times I clicked cancel so I'm assuming I'm tuned with uprev. Cruise control has worked fine. Now I'm worried because I don't know what map I was in and don't want to put it into a map that might hurt something. Do I have anything to worry about? From researching it looks like the most common maping is:

1: Tuned Map for 91 Octane
2: Tuned Map for Higher Octane
3: Valet
4: Anti-Theft
5: Factory Maps

Is there a way to verify if this is my setup? What else should I know? Also I bought the car in Florida and brought it to utah, would the tune not be as good now? I've been very happy with the power and performance of the car, hope I don't f that up now lol. Thoughts?

Because cars can be tuned to different gasoline octanes you don't know what it was tuned to. Best thing is. Take it in to get tuned to your specifications and know what's what

U already own the license so that's a plus. But if it were me I'd run the highest octane found in the area of Florida and go through each map a running the car feeling for the difference
