reseting my ecu?
i just installed a helix downpipe and a stromung catback exhaust yesterday and i was wondering if i should re-set my ecu?
if so where is it located, how do i go about re-setting it, and how long can i drive the car without re-setting it?

But if you'd like to, disconnect your negative battery terminal and step on the brake pedal a few times and that should reset it. I leave my battery disconnected for about 10 minutes just to make sure.
thanks for the help guys, btw the car is sounding better than ever
