wondering if putting a cold air intake and after market exhaust on a 1993 accord needs to have the ECU reset.... thanks...

 

it wouldnt hurt. go for it.

 

I don't see a reason to do that... the ECu should adjust itself to any change in the car by itself (that what the sensors are for)

if anyone has more info than me plz let me know... i feel like there's something im missing...

 

Reset will force the ECU to re-learn the idle behavior & re-learn the little variations to the fuel map. Of course, the ECU will learn that anyway over time. Reset will clear any information that's already stored, so learning the behavior of the new equipment is a bit faster.

But I'm not sure how much of that a 93 is capable of learning. Also, don't know whether intake & exhaust have much affect at all on the idle.

 

I dont see a real reason for that ECU to be reset either
