Is anyone aware of a device you can install in a car/DME that can detect and report if a map has been changed? Due to HP limits, the main concern of people racing in 944 Cup is that people change maps during the race and then change back for the dyno pulls. Cars are inspected for telltale signs of such devices, but there's still a chance people are outsmarting the inspections. Ideally it would monitor output/status throughout the course of a race and could then be checked after the fact to see if people are pulling the switcheroo. A lot of people know a lot more about car electronics than I do in here, so I figured I'd ask.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
