Dumbest Question Ever..::covering head from flame::
Alright, here I go....people reset their ecu when installing cai's and other boltons that change the oxygen flow and such. So here's the dumb question part....is there any reason to reset the ecu if when i put in the K&N drop in filter, because the air flow changes? I know its a risky question, so I'll accept some flame[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]--as long as its mixed in with some real answers

Your ecu adapts itself to any changes from intake to exhaust. It takes about 150 miles to change itself so the answer is no you don't have to reset your ecu it does it by itself. One the other hand I am pretty sure there are no adverse affects to resetting it yourself.
