ok, so i searched around, maybe not well enough, but i could not find much on how exactly to find out what strategy i have on my brothers truck? we have a banks IQ for it, and i have not figured out how to get the strategy of the e/t/ficm on it. does anyone know how? or do i just have to get a scan tool of a certain brand or what? i would really like to find out which strats i have so that i can go about getting a better one, or just getting the performance tunes.

thanks.

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the IQ so I'm not going to be of much help there. All I can offer is that you look in the menuing for anything that indicates "Vehicle Information" or "Calibration Information" or something like that. Also, if you know anyone with an SCT it will show you the ECM and TCM cals, although it does not show the FICM. Outside of that, a trip to the dealer will get you the information you need. Pay the tech $20 (or maybe a 12-pack ;) ) and he may plug the IDS in and get you the calibration info you need. :D

Good luck.

ok, ill give the 12 pack idea a try. thanks. oh, and more on the truck it is a 2006 f-350 drw, 4x4, cc, auto. do you think i ought to get a better strategy? i would really like to get some better throttle response and such. fuel mileage is great too.

Without knowing what your calibration is now, I can't adequately advise on the rollback. Once you figure that out we can point you in the right direction.
