Do you still recommend that I pull the fuses out of the box to reset the computer?

I have all the pieces if anyone wants to install this on their car. It was only installed on my car once and it was not driven around in that period. PM me and we can work out a price.

Well I then put the stock intake back on and the CEL is still on, so I'm clueless of to what happened. I followed the How-to step by step.

Is there any place that checks the codes for cheap?




dumb question but shouldnt you reset the computer after a mod like this? airflow has changed. the computer is still looking for the stock readings. right?
