Do you need to reset the ecu when you fit a full decat system
Hi, i was wondering if you need to reset the ecu when you fit a full decat exhaust system on a classic turbo my00.
Cheers in advance for any help.

Thought it would be best, will disconnect the battery for an hour tomorrow as i read somewhere that this would reset the ecu.

It will reach optimum settings quicker if you don't reset as they will be nearer to what it is running than an advance multiplier of 8 with a load of zeros in the fine learning table. The AE802 ECU code in the MY00 is pretty dynamic for knock learning from spending hours watching it doing its stuff.
