im pretty sure this re-setting the ecu business is a myth

the ecu continusly updates it self for the correct air/fuel ratio, so theirs not much point in doing it, if it all it works

yeh it works... it basically figures out the resistance and resets what the idle figures are... and thus can construct the rest of the rev range when its moving about...

Ok it adjusts all the time, but it needs a clean slate to work out something if the resistance / air supply is different!
