no way to know if they don't know. fill it with the top octane in your area until you decide to get your own tuner and reflash it to what you want.

Check the glovebox, trunk, behind the seats... maybe the previous owner left the tuner. They traded it in with the steeda CAI, they very easily could have taken it out and made a few bucks on e-bay. Seems strange they'd keep the tuner and leave everything else.
