The issue is though that a Subaru ecu can be flashed without any "signs" of it being flashed; follow me?
So I'm not too sure as what's in the ecu ,stock or flashed. If I understand correctly the ecu has to be stock/not flashed for Cobb to work but correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes i do follow you, with bolt ons i doubt your in any danger, how does the car run now? Any signs of missfire, can you hear any pinging or knock? If you have a wide band check the afr, if its ok your fine. As far as the cobb, if the ecu has been flashed it doesnt matter, cobb will override that flash with its new map.
