Reset the ECU with O/R x-pipe install?

[NicksBullitt]

Should I reset the ECU when I install the o/r x-pipe tomorrow?

I already have mils, just wondering if the extra exhaust flow might warrant resetting the computer.

I did when I put my xpipe on. I just disconnectd the neg battery cable.

You can if you want to. But the ECU will 'learn' any new parameters (it's constantly updating itself anyway) by just driving with the new mod. An x-pipe just isn't one of those mods that require a computer reset.

Resetting the EEC is always a good idea. But it doesn't really matter. It will adapt either way. Resetting it just forces it to do it more quickly.

I unhooked the negative side of the battery when i installed my o/r xpipe.
