Default Need a lil INFO...

My Intake should be here any day now. When I install it what should I do as far as the ECU? Should I go with the reset? Leave it alone? Anyone have a procedure if there are any? Any help or advice or just plain ol FACTS would be great

You can also do it this way:

1) Make sure the ignition is switched off.
2) Wait at least 10 secs, then switch On (not started)
3) Wait 3 seconds
4) Press and release accelerator quickly 5 times within 5 seconds
5) Wait 7 seconds
6) Fully push and hold accelerator for 10 seconds until the MIL starts to blink
7) Release accelerator (you are in diagnostic mode)
8) To erase, press the accelerator fully and hold for at least 10 seconds

I just disconnected the battery when I did mine. Took about 3 hours with intake and exhaust. I thought that the ECU reset after 20 min with the battery disconnected.
