Post '03 Civic, D17A1
Recently installed a header and a CAI. Now, from reading past posts concerning other engines, after such an installation, you need to reset the ecu. Would this situation be applicable to myself? I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks!

reseting the ecu will not correct the computer.
you will have to tune it for it to get optimal gains from these mods.
