Is there a way to find out if your car is "chipped"?

I got the free 6 hour, 91 octane tune from APR, and I didn't notice any power increase. For those of you who have gotten a tune, did you feel the increase?
I even tested it on a desolate road I frequent. From a dead stop at one sign, to another, I hit the same MPH.

They said if I was happy with it, come back to pay for it and they'd "unlock" the tune.
Is it possible they wouldn't see the tune if it was from another tuner other than APR.

If the car was chipped already and they overwrote that tune, with the demo than probably you wouldn't feel a difference, and yes they can tell if it's not stock.

and that it won't work again. They never checked the first time I was in, and it's too late to see now since the newer demo tune would have erased the older one (if it existed). They also said the tune looked stock to them (and felt stock when they drove it)
The only thing they suggested was, since APR has a 30 day, 100% money back guarantee, buy the tune, and if it still doesn't drive like a rocket, then get my money back.
I think I'll try going to a REVO or GIAC dealer first and try their free trials. See what happens

flash over APR tuning without having a dealer flash it back to stock. The new Revo tuning may be able to but I won't have it for another couple of weeks so I don't know yet.
