Default How do you know if a PT has been upgraded?

Hi,

I just bought a used an '03 PT Turbo with 27 K on the odometer. It has a K&N high flow filter on it.
I was wondering how to tell if a PT is upgraded or not barring a dyno test. The computer has an "Authorized Software Upgrade" decal on it with a pin number. The upgrade was done in June of 2004.

PCM was probably flashed. If it was stage 1 it would say it on the sticker and if I remember correctly it would say for off road use only.

I think that was probably just an update for the PCM but doubt if it has stage 1. IMHO

Opps, old post.
Do the key dance to see if the stage 1 code (p0633) pops up[|)]
