Yes of course, there would be a way, but they don't have time for all that palava at a dealership- they plug it in and computer tells them if it's detecting a remap.
I have a very good relationship at one dealership and they let me watch whilst they did it. And it's been to another one for an issue and again they didn't find it.

So being detectable by someone exhaustively looking is not the same as being detectable under normal dealership working practices.

The Birds remap warranty is provided independently, but the last time I spoke to Kevin he said he was only doing them as part of larger package of upgrades, not as stand alone remaps. That was last autumn though so I guess could have changed.
