to reset it just disconnect the battery for a few minutes...might be worth doing it if you have put on new exhaust and extractors..certainly wont do any harm...

yeh it wont matter too much...drive it as ya normally would just dont hoon too much at least for a wee while ... only oither thing is people with autos will feel it running in LIMP mode for a while til the ECU re-learns everything.

I reset mine after i go the ticky snorkel/k+n filter and exhaust, seemed to do the trick, started real rough the first time but once it learned everything was running like a dream

You can reset the ECU either by the two pins in the connector plug within the fuse box or disconnect your battery for at least 30 mins or so.

hate it when you take the battery out when you work on the car, then you gotta wait a week for the ECU to relearn properly.
