Default How to tell if car has trd reflash?

My girl bought a used tc with a trd charger on it from a dealer... non toyota.. My question is how would I go about telling if the ecu has the reflash I havent dug into the car but im pretty sure there isnt a piggyback... Maybe I should try the dealer and see if they installed the charger? thanks

Go take it to the dealer, although they will most likely say no, just so you have to pay to put it on there..

If it was installed at a the dealer, it should have a sticker on the ecu that came with the charger. Also the flash rom should be in the globe box as it is directed to be kept in the glovebox at all times.

if it wasn't reflashed, it would run like crap.
