yes i know i have been with newcelica.org for a long time and i should know the answer to this already, but i dont so here it goes.
Do you have to reset the ecu if you add intake header and exhaust? cause i put all these mods on my car a while ago and i have never reset the ecu. do you think my ecu fixed itself and got use to these mods or shoudl i still reset it, after all this time?
thanx and sorry for the dumb **** question

you should reset it yes...

the way you do it is by opening up your fuseblock box.... looking under the cover.. there are 3 fuses labelled EFI, match the fuses and pull them out for 2 minutes... then reinstert them... thats it.

Wouldn't just disconnecting the battery work? I would think that would be a lot easier.

that'll work too, but you lose your audio presets and clock

Pulling the fuse is so much easier. There's even a little fuse grabber thingy in there :)

I Installed my CAI with the battery pulled, so do I still need to reset my ecu?
