I did an ECU Reset, and I swear, the engine is breathing better..
Ok, ok, it MAY be placebo. But I notice it. I wanted to do it, because I just got the car about 2 months ago. Only had 18k miles, it seems it was babied even though its a 6MT. I don't "break" cars, but I certainly don't granny them around. I'm quite the spirited driver. And I swear the engine has gotten more torquey and the exhaust has gotten louder since buying her.
So I decided to reset, just for the ***** and giggles. And I can hear more air rushing into the engine now. The revs seems to move up quicker and drop quicker. There was a little bit of a slow return to idle, not hanging, just slow at least to my taste. This account is taken after resetting twice, just to make sure, and then driving around for like 10 minutes.
But if its just placebo...well placebo is a beautiful thing.
I'm fully 100% stock, unless maybe a few stealth mods like a spacer (I bought it used, ya never know) but I doubt it!
