#13192, "unplugging ecu for intake?"


          

since an intake gives more air... should i be unplugging the ecu so that it relearns how to do everything with more air?

You can disconnect the battery. The ecu will reset that way too.

All that will do is reset any values it has stored (trim values) and go back to base fuel mapping. It will learn and adjust these values as you go no need to reset.

The strongest way to block, is never to provoke a blow,
And the cleanest cut is the one withheld."
