Well, I am more of a stereo guy than an engine guy, but I'm sick of this lil' 1.5L. No balls. None. So I putz this lil' "Ractive" high flow air filter on. It looks kind of neat and sounds DAMN good between 4 and 6 thousand RPM. I don't think it improved performance much, but maybe it's just me.

Well my question is this: I've heard something before about resetting the computer so that it recognizes the increased air flow. How do I go about doing that? I did a couple of searches but couldn't find anything for an Accent. It's a 97 GL SOHC.

Thanks!

May not be for an accent specifically, but the ECUs should be similar, with different programming.

So... going by what UFB said, there is no way to reset this "ECU" thingee majig?

 

Er, no.....he said that they're continuously learning, and don't need to be reset.

[edit: heh, should read my own references]

And yeah, the ECU is the computer. (engine control unit)
