Intake question

I'm installing my intake tomorrow, and I was wondering if I have to disconnect the battery, or pull the relay to reset the ECU. I have read yes and no. Any advice? Thanks...Mike

i've never heard that, but go ahead and pull the fuse for the ECU for 15 seconds, that should be good enough.

I read it on hondaracing.ca. Supposed to reset ECU because the engine will be taking in more air, so the computer needs to adjust itself for the new ari/fuel mixture. Thanks
Missing the Burlinton meet, I have to work at 6. Get some ribs at the ribfest.

What? There's a meet closer to you and you're gonna pass up cuz you have to work? Don't you know your life rotates around TCC?

J/K... but seriously, you should try and make it out to KC on a Wednesday night soon. Personally, I think it's worth the drive.
