Hi all, I just installed my first 'mod' yesterday. a JWT popcharger for my '04.


After reading through some of the forums, I noticed some people mentioned resetting the ECU so the car can 'learn' how to handle the change in airflow.

Is this necessary? What do you think?

Even if not, how do you reset the ECU anyhow? Is it as simple as disconnecting the battery for a few and reconnecting it?

Thanks in advance!

 

reset isn't needed, I didn't and it still worked

I don't know of the fuse to pull but you can disconnect your battery and let all memory drain from the system which takes like 15-20 minutes.

 

i would recommend that you reset you ECU. its in no way necessary or vital when installing something as trivial as an intake but it gives your car a new flatline to start from, from which to build afr maps and the such.
