i have the same intakes, double check all connections to make sure no air leaks. are you planning on doing HFC's or test pipes, if so wait til then to tune. there are a couple ways to reset the ecu... disconnect the battery for 24 hours or do the pedal dance listed here

depends on if you have 24 hours to wait or not. it took me a couple of times to get the pedal method to work.

when i press the accelerator the rpm's fly up then fall back down and then power kicks in and its a manual i thought it was transmission one because im not really mechanically inclined and i figured it could have been that the clutch wasn't catching

yep, your clutch is on its way out. the bad thing about the HR trans is that is has the internal slave cylinder. if you want to do it right, then get the Zspeed heavy duty master and slave and then whatever clutch and flywheel you choose.

no worries. what i may like in a clutch and flywheel you may not. alot of DE guys (03-06) get the JWT combo, me personally i am lookin at the southbend one. i already have the master and slave, but this is the kit i am going to go with. if you buy this, you will have everything you need
