just an off topic question, what is a strategy code? how is it obtainable?

You cant retrieve the strategy code unless you have the flasher hooked up to the vehicle. Are you looking into getting a tune?

Yes, hopefully in spring. I'm just curious, keep seeing people post about SC, and was wondering what it actually is? From what I gathered dealer installed code on the car?

A strategy code is the "nickname" if you will for the specific set of instructions the car's computer comes with from the factory.  Once the tuner knows what specific set of instructions come from the factory, they can tune it safely for that car or any car with that set of instructions.  Used to be on a sticker on the PCM, might have it if lucky, wouldn't count on it though.  If the dealership updates the PCM, that changes the strategy code, but the sticker doesn't get updated.

Exactly, sort of the password to enter the brains of the car. Easily retrieved with a tuning device in hand. Think it's more of a manufacturer installed code though with updates via the "stealership ".
