ECU Reset?

When if ever do you need to do a ECU reset and does it make a difference. I saw the tech article on how - does that work? Just curious on the topic. Thanks for any info.

You usually need to do a reset whenever you install a new mod that affects engine performance in some fashion.

Should I do this after I install my CAI? How do you do it?

You just pull the ECU fuse (in the box next to the battery) and leave it out for a few minutes. Then reinstall it. Needs to be done whenever something is added or disconnected the reconnected (sensors).
