Nooooo, the two things are completely different things. The ECU will self learn to a degree that there is an induction kit fitted. i thought that - kind of. So basically a carb does need setting up to acommidate the increased air intake?

	all it does is re-sets the memory of the ecu. clears fault codes. ecu's self learn, so re-setting it may appear to do something instantly, but will do it eventually anyway. doesnt actually 'adjust' to the new air filter.

	^^^ people always say this, but when i first got my K&N my revs went from 800 RPM to 1500 RPM, so it was revving well high ( increased airflow i'm thinking of) i thought it would sort it's self out which it did not, so 2 days later i disconnected the battery, ( for only 5 mins ) reconnected and left it running and it settled back at 800 RPM. So it worked for me. [Edited on 06-07-2005 by Corsa E-Tec]

	Bought and fitted my piperX induction kit today, all was quite clear and it looks sweet. There is basically no change in engine sound though , is there anything i might have missed out? thanks :thumbs:
